Thy Way Not Mine, O Lord

As performed for Sunday morning worship at Mission Bible Church in Tustin, CA
Written by Horatius Bonar and Daniel Posthuma (melody and chorus)
Lyrics:
Thy way, not mine, O Lord,
However dark it be;
Lead me by Thine own hand,
Choose out the path for me.
Smooth let it be, or rough,
It will be still the best;
Winding or straight it leads
Right onward to Thy rest.
I dare not choose my lot;
I would not if I might:
Choose Thou for me, my God,
So shall I walk aright.
Take Thou my cup, and it
With joy or sorrow fill,
As best to Thee may seem;
Choose Thou my good and ill.
Your ways are better
Your path is brighter
Your wisdom deeper
Your righteousness will be my guide
Choose Thou for me my friends,
My sickness or my health.
Choose Thou my cares for me,
My poverty or wealth.
Not mine, not mine the choice,
In things both great and small;
Be Thou my guide, my strength,
My wisdom and my all.
