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, and Thou my true Word; |
|
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord; |
|
Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son; |
|
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one. |
|
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, oh bright Heaven's Sun! |
|
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, |
|
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all. |
|
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, |
|
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all. |
