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
Walking 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 battle shield, sword for the fight
Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight
Thou my soul's shelter and Thou my high tow'r
Raise Thou me heavenward, O pow'r of my pow'r

Riches I heed not nor man's empty praise
Thou mine inheritance through all my days
Thou and Thou only the first in my heart
High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art

High King of heaven, my victory won
May I reach heaven's joy's, 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
