Thy Way, Not Mine, O Jesus Dear
Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #300 (1927) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Spiritual Songs Divine Care and Guidance Lyrics: 1 Thy way, not mine, O Jesus dear,
Tho' dark it oft may be;
But let thy light to me appear
And choose the path for me.
2 Tho' hard and steep my path proceeds,
It surely serves me best,
And by Thy grace it upward leads
To heaven's Sabbath rest.
3 I dare not walk the path alone,
I would not, if I might;
But, Jesus, keep me with Thine own,
And lead me by Thy light.
4 Give me the food most meet for me
And fill my cup each day;
But heal my wounds and set me free
From sin and Satan's sway.
5 Press onward then, my weary soul,
To heaven's Sabbath rest,
And journey safely to the goal,
Led by thy Savior blest.

Lord, Make Thou Me Ever Meek And Humble
Author: O. Bertelsen Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #302 (1927) Meter: 10.9.10.9 Topics: Spiritual Songs Divine Care and Guidance Lyrics: 1 Lord, make Thou me ever meek and humble,
Thou hast called me here to bear Thy name;
Lead me by Thy hand, lest I should stumble,
And the world might put Thy child to shame.
2 Oft I tried to walk alone, obedient
Only to my own desire and will,
When my own way seem'd to me expedient,
Thou decreas'd, and I grew vainer still.
3 Hence my heart grew faint with fear and anguish,
Hence my vision dimm'd and was confus'd,
Hence my soul in grief and fear did languish,
And my stumbling feet were sorely bruis'd.
4 Lord, make Thou me ever meek and humble;
Make me understand that Thou art great;
Led by Thee I shall not stray and stumble,
Tho' the way be dark and desolate. Languages: English Tune Title: [Lord, make Thou me ever meek and humble]

I Cannot Always See The Way
Author: Gertrude B. Curtis Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #305 (1927) Meter: 14.14.14.14 Topics: Spiritual Songs Divine Care and Guidance First Line: I cannot always see the way that leads to heights above Lyrics: 1 I cannot always see the way that leads to heights above,
And sometimes I forget He leads me on with hand of love,
But yet I know the path must lead me to Immanuel's land,
And when I leave life's summit I shall know and understand.
2 I cannot always trace the onward course my ship must take,
But, looking backward, I behold afar its shining wake
Illumined with God's light of love, and so I onward go,
In perfect trust that He who holds the helm the course must know.
3 I cannot always see the plan on which He builds my life,
For oft the sound of hammers blow and blow, the noise of strife
Confuse me till I quite forget He knows and oversees.
And that in all details, with His good plan my life agrees.
4 I cannot always know and understand the Master's rule;
I cannot always do the tasks He gives in life's hard school;
But I am learning with His help to solve them, one by one.
And when I cannot understand, to say Thy will be done. Languages: English Tune Title: [I cannot always see the way that leads to heights above]
