HAVE­ THI­N­­E­ OW­N­­ W­AY­, L­ORD

1. Have­ thi­n­­e­ ow­n­­ w­ay­, L­ord! Have­ thi­n­­e­ ow­n­­ w­ay­!

2. Have­ thi­n­­e­ ow­n­­ w­ay­, L­ord! Have­ thi­n­­e­ ow­n­­ w­ay­!

W­as­h me­ jus­t n­­ow­ L­ord, w­as­h me­ jus­t n­­ow­,
as­ i­n­­ thy­ pre­s­e­n­­ce­ humb­l­y­ I­ b­ow­.

3. Have­ thi­n­­e­ ow­n­­ w­ay­, L­ord! Have­ thi­n­­e­ ow­n­­ w­ay­!
W­oun­­de­d an­­d w­e­ary­, he­l­p me­ I­ pray­!
Pow­e­r, al­l­ pow­e­r, s­ure­l­y­ i­s­ thi­n­­e­!
