I Love This Song

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;

I ever with Thee and Thou with me Lord;

Thou my great Father - I, Thy true son;

Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Be Thou my battle-shield, sword for my fight,
Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight.
Thou my soul's shelter, Thou my high tower.
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.

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.

High King of Heaven, my victory won,

May I reach Heaven's joys - O bright Heaven's sun!

Heart of my own heart, whatever befalls;

Still be my Vision, O Ruler of All!

- Ancient Irish Hymn

 Make this my prayer, O Lord.
