Be Thou my vision

- Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart,
- Be all else but naught to me, save that Thou art;
- Be Thou my best thought in the day and the night,
- Both waking and sleeping, Thy presence my light.
- Be Thou my wisdom, be Thou my true word,
- Be Thou ever with me, and I with Thee, Lord;
- Be Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son;
- Be Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
- Be Thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight;
- Be Thou my whole armour, be Thou my true might;
- Be Thou my soul's shelter, be Thou my strong tower:
- O raise Thou me heavenward, great Power of my power.
- Riches I need not, nor man's empty praise:
- Be Thou mine inheritance now and always;
- Be Thou and Thou only the first in my heart:
- O Sovereign of heaven, my treasure Thou art.
- High King of heaven, Thou heaven's bright Sun,
- O grant me its joys after victory is won;
- Great Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
- Still be Thou my vision, O Ruler of all.
