Author: G. B. Hymnal: Full Redemption Songs #166 (1933) First Line: Let go, and let God have His way with thee Lyrics: 1 Let go, and let God have His way with thee, Delivered from sin, He would have thee be; “He’s able to save to the uttermost.” Let go, and be “filled with the Holy Ghost.” Refrain: Let go, let go, Let go, and let God have His way with thee; Let go, let go, Let go, and let God have His way with thee. 2 Let go, and let God have His way with thee, O struggle no more, hear His say, “Be free;” Thine all gladly yield to His will divine, Let go, and be filled with His love sublime. [Refrain] 3 Let go, and let God have His way with thee, What wonders in grace then thine eyes shall see; The Spirit’s indwelling thy life shall crown, Let go, and the power will then come down. [Refrain] 4 Let go, and let God have His way with thee, “The pow’r to witness, receive,” saith He; The blessing of cleansing and “perfect love, Will fit thee for service and heav’n above.
