Thy way, not mine

"He shall choose our inheritance for us"  Psalm 47:4

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 alright:

The kingdom that I seek

Is Thine; so let the way 

That leads it be Thine,

Else I must surely stray

Not mine, not mine the choice,

In things or great or small;

Be Thou my guide, my strength,

My wisdom and my all.  

-H. Bonar
