Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Thy way, not mine, O Lord 
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 I shall walk aright. 
The kingdom that I seek is thine; so let the way that leads to it be thine, else I must surely stray. 
Take thou my cup, and it with joy or sorrow fill, as best to thee may seem; choose thou my good and ill. 
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 or great or small; be thou my Guide, my Strength my wisdom and my all.
