Be Thou My Vision (Getty Kids Hymnal)
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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 tower
Raise Thou me Heavenward, O power of my power
[Verse 4]
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise
Thou mine inhеritance, thru all my days
Thou and Thou only, the first in my heart
High King of hеaven, my treasure Thou art
[Verse 5]
High King of heaven, my victory won
May I reach heaven’s joys, 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
