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, be Thou my true Word;
Be Thou ever with me, and I with Thee Lord;
Be Thou my dear Father, and I as Thy son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee, one.
Will Thou preserve me, midst all of my foes;
Thy love as a fortress, that none can o're throw;
O be Thou my guardian, my shield and my stay;
Protect and defend me, through all of my days.
(vocalizing)
Be Thou my vision, O ruler of all;
Great heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Grant me Thy presence, when victory is won;
Great high king of heaven, my heaven's bright sun
(vocalizing)
