Be Thou my vision, O, Lord of my heart |
|
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art |
|
Thou my best thought, by day or by night |
|
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light |
|
Be Thou my wisdom, Thou my true word |
|
I ever with Thee, Thou with me, Lord |
|
Thou my great Father, I thy true son |
|
Thou in me dwelling and I with Thee one |
|
Be Thou my battle shield, sword for my fight |
|
Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight |
|
Thou my soul's shelter, Thou my high tower |
|
Raise Thou me heavenward, O, power of my power |
|
Riches I heed not nor man's empty praise |
|
Thou mine inheritance, now and always |
|
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart |
|
High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art |
|
High King of heaven, my victory won |
|
May I reach heaven's joys, O, bright heav'ns Son |
|
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall |
|
Still be my vision, O, Ruler of all |
