Sitting in a prayer meeting one evening, Adalaide Pollard was heavily discouraged. She'd spent years evangelizing, and then preparing to go to the mission field of Africa at age 40. Forced to cancel her voyage to Africa at the last minute when funding fell through, she attended that prayer meeting, unsure of what God had for her future. An elderly woman spoke a prayer aloud, saying "It's all right Lord! It doesn't matter what you bring into our lives. Just have your own way with us." From that simple, straightforward prayer, Adalaide was inspired to pen this hymn, "Have Thine Own Way, Lord."
