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 heed not, not man's empty praise,
Be thou my inheritance now and always;
Be thou and thou only the first in my heart:
O Sov'reign of heaven, my treasure thou art.
High King of heaven, thou heaven's bright Son,
O grant me its joys after victr'y is won;
Great Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be thou my vision, O Ruler of all. less
