If I had my way

If I Had My Way

If I had my way, I wonder what the world would show?

Would there be love to every soul, would I let sinners go?

Would I stop wars, feed hungry men, or simply let them be?

I wonder what I’d really do, if God gave power to me?

I hope I’d always merely show, regardless of the one

Remembering what was done for me, when God gave us His Son

I hope I’d keep the Son with me, let Him show me the way

I wonder what the world would be, if I had my way?

Oh Lord, I will not seek my way, Yours is best for me.

In wisdom let me walk with You, for I can surely see

Selfishness might rule my heart, taking I’d never give

Just give me what You want to, for love’s sake let me live.
