Have Thine Own Way, Lord

Thou art the potter,
I am the clay!
Mold me and make me
After Thy will,
While I am waiting,
Yielded and still.

Whiter than snow, Lord,
Wash me just now,
As in Thy presence
Humbly I bow.

Surely is Thine!
Touch me and heal me,
Savior divine!

Hold o'er my being
Absolute sway!
Fill with Thy Spirit

Christ only, always,
Living in me!

Where countless dangers hide;
It may be in the sunshine
That I, in peace abide;
But this one thing I know-
If it be dark or fair,
If Jesus is with me,
I’ll go anywhere!
Refrain:
If Jesus goes with me, I’ll go.
Anywhere!
’Tis heaven to me,
Where’er I may be,
If He is there!
I count it a privilege here.
His cross to bear;
If Jesus goes with me, I’ll go-
Anywhere!
2 It may be I must carry
The blessed word of life
Across the burning deserts
To those in sinful strife;
And though it be my lot
To bear my colors there,
If Jesus goes with me,
I’ll go anywhere! [Refrain]
3 But if it be my portion
To bear my cross at home,
While others bear their burdens
Beyond the billow’s foam,
I’ll prove my faith in Him-
Confess His judgments fair,
And, if He stays with me,
I’ll go anywhere! [Refrain]
4 It is not mine to question
The judgments of my Lord,
It is but mine to follow
The leadings of His word;
But if to go or stay,
Or whether here or there,
I’ll be, with my Savior,
Content anywhere! [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 28:19-20 Used With Tune: IF JESUS GOES
If Jesus Goes with Me

C. Austin Miles
1868 - 1946 Person Name: C. Austin Miles, 1868-1946 Topics: Commitment and Submission Author of "If Jesus Goes with Me" in Total Praise Charles Austin Miles USA 1868-1946. Born at Lakehurst, NJ, he attended the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and the University of PA. He became a pharmacist. He married Bertha H Haagen, and they had two sons: Charles and Russell. In 1892 he abandoned his pharmacy career and began writing gospel songs. At first he furnished compositions to the Hall-Mack Publishing Company, but soon became editor and manager, where he worked for 37 years. He felt he was serving God better in the gospel song writing business, than as a pharmacist. He published the following song books: “New songs of the gospel” (1900), “The service of praise” (1900), “The voice of praise” (1904), “The tribute of song” (1904), “New songs of the gospel #2” (1905), “Songs of service” (1910), “Ideal Sunday school hymns” (1912). He wrote and/or composed 400+ hymns. He died in Philadelphia, PA.

Born at New York City, the son of a merchant, he graduated from Union Theological Seminary, New York. He married Margaretta Wheeler. He was an author and poet and wrote several books. He pastored the Greenville Presbyterian Church, Sag Harbor Presbyterian Church on Long Island, and the Church of Sea and Land, NYC, a church for sailors, where he remained the rest of his life (for years the church building was shared with the First Chinese Presbyterian Church). Once he was asked to compose a hymn verse for the anniversary of the Seamen’s Friend’s Society meeting. Instead, he brought the verse for a hymn he had written eight years before (noted below). John Edgar Gould saw Hopper’s poem (6 stanzas) and composed a tune for it. Hopper died of a heart attack while writing a poem about heaven at his desk.
