266. Choose Thou for Me

1 Choose Thou for me, O Mighty One,
Choose Thou for me;
Sometimes I falter in despair,
I know not whither here nor there,
I cast myself upon Thy care;
Choose Thou for me, choose Thou for me.

2 Choose Thou for me, O Mighty One,
Choose Thou for me;
Thy love so great will cheer my way,
Wherever Thou dost bid me stay;
Thy will I would no more delay;
Choose Thou for me, choose Thou for me.

3 Choose Thou for me, O Mighty One,
Choose Thou for me;
Abide in me Thou heav’nly guest,
Lead me by ways Thou seest best,
And help me in Thy love to rest;
Choose Thou for me, choose Thou for me.

4 Choose Thou for me, O Mighty One,
Choose Thou for me;
And ever may Thy will be done,
Until at last my race is run—
The journey o’er and heaven won;
Choose Thou for me, choose Thou for me.
