Be Thou My Vision

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

Be Thou my wisdom, and Thou my true word

I ever with Thee and Thou with me Lord

Be Thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight

Be Thou my armour and be Thou my might

Riches I need not, nor man's empty praise

Thou my inheritance, now and always

Thou and Thou only, first in my heart

High king of heaven my treasure Thou art

High king of heaven, when battle is done

Grant heaven's joy to me, oh bright heaven's sun

Christ of my own heart, whatever befall

Still be my vision, my ruler of all
