1.

When I walk through shadowed valleys

And You're silent when I pray,

Teach me then to wait in stillness,

Hope in You, Lord, come what may.

Chorus

I am Yours; O mold me, Jesus.

Make me, Lord, like You, I pray.

Unto You I yield completely.

Lead me forth upon life's way.

2.

When you break me down completely,

When you block and fence my way,

Teach me, Lord, to show forth virtue.

Jesus, guide my steps, I pray.

(Job 19:8-10)

3.

Take my all and make me peaceful.

Close beside me always stay.

Draw me, Jesus; You I'll follow,

Taking up my cross each day.

4.

You are all I long for, Jesus.

You are everything to me.

May I have Your mind, dear Savior;

More and more like You I'd be.
