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

Riches I heed not nor man's empty praise
Thou mine inheritance now and always
Thou and Thou only, the first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

Chorus

​​Oh, God, be my everything, be my delight
Be, Jesus, my glory My soul's satisfied
Oh, God, be my everything, be my delight
Be, Jesus, my glory My soul's satisfied

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.
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Further Instructions

2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. 3 And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. 4 Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. 5 Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. 6 Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.
