一 求祢揀我道路，我主，為我揀選；
我無自己的羨慕，我要祢的意念。
祢所命定的前途，無論何等困難；
我要甘心的順服，來尋祢的喜歡。
（副）求祢握住我的手，祢知我的軟弱；
否則我只能憂愁，不知如何生活。
祢若握住我的手，不問祢是揀選
何種道路和時候，我心都覺甘甜。
二 不問平坦與崎嶇，只要是祢揀選，
就是我所最心許；別的不合意願。
我是不敢自作主，祢許，我也不要；
求祢揀選我道路，我要聽祢遣調。
三 我的時候在祢手，不論或快或慢；
照祢喜悅來劃籌，我無自己喜歡。
祢若定我須忍耐許多日日年年，
我就不願早無礙；一切就早改變。
四 主，我餘生的小杯，求祢隨意傾注；
或是喜樂或傷悲，求祢隨意作主。
一切痛苦都甘甜，若知是祢意思；
一切享受成可厭，若非祢所恩賜。
五 求祢為我來揀選 健康或是疾病，
或是笑容或淚眼，美名或是惡名。
不論事情大或小，揀選？我是不要；
不要自己的感覺，只要祢的榮耀。
1. Thy way, not mine, O Lord,
However dark it be;
Lead me by Thine own hand,
Choose out the path for me.
Thy way - Thy chosen way,
However rough it be;
'Tis Thee I seek to please,
Gladly with Thee agree.
Refrain
Hold Thou my hand, Lord Jesus,
Thou knowest my weak frame:
Knowing not how to go on,
I can but sigh in shame.
If Thou wouldst hold my hand, Lord,
Whatever be Thy choice,
Any time, any way, Lord,
Sweetly I will rejoice.
2. 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 aright.
3. My time is in Thy hand,
Let it be soon or late;
Plan it to Thy delight,
I would not choose the date.
If I should need to wait
Many a day or year,
I want no changes made,
Nothing the way to clear.
4. Take Thou my cup, and it
With joy or sorrow fill,
As best to Thee may seem;
Choose Thou my good and ill.
All suff'rings shall be sweet,
If Thy wish they fulfill;
All pleasures shall be dull,
If they are not Thy will.
5. Choose Thou for me my friends,
My sickness or my health;
Choose Thou my care 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.
