lyrics

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.

See Through Me
Help Us See

Be Thou my wisdom and 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.

See Through Me
Help Us See

Be thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight;
Be thou my dignity, thou my delight;
Thou my soul's mother, thou my high tower:
Raise all things heavenward, O Power of power.

See Through Me
Help Us See

High Lord of heaven, the victory won,
May I be in heaven’s joys, O bright heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all!

See Through Me
Help Us See
