Be Thou My Vision
1
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.
2
Be Thou my wisdom,
Be 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.
3
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.
4
High King of heaven,
When vict'ry is won,
May I reach heaven's joys,
O bright heaven's Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my vision, O ruler of all.
