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, 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, O 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.
