Be Thou My Vision

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, be 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.

Be Thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight;
Be Thou my armor, be Thou my true might.
Be Thou my soul's shelter, be Thou my strong tower;
Raise Thou me heavenward, great power of my power.

Riches I heed not, nor vain, empty praise;
Thou mine inheritance, now and always.
Thou and Thou only, the first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my treasure Thou art.

High King of Heaven, Thou heaven’s bright sun,
Grant me its joys after victory is won.
Heart of my heart, whatever befall,
Still be my vision, Oh Ruler of all.
