VERSE 1
Be thou my vision
Oh 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
VERSE 2
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
REFRAIN
My guide, my sight
Great God
Great light
VERSE 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.
REFRAIN (2x)
VERSE 4
High King of Heaven
My victory won
May I reach Heaven’s joys,
Bright Heaven’s Sun
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.
