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, 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

 

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

 

Chorus

You are more precious than silver

Lord are more costly than gold

Lord You are more beautiful than diamonds

Nothing I desire compares with You

 

Verse 4

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
