Hull, 1912 Music: traditional Irish 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. 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. 3 Be thou my battle shield, sword for my fight; Be thou my dignity, Thou my delight, Thou my soul's shelter, Thou my high tow'r: Raise Thou me heav'n-ward, O Pow'r of my Pow'r. 4 Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise; Thou mine inheritance, now and always; Thou and Thou only, first in my heart; O King of glory, my treasure Thou art. 5 High King of heaven, my victory won, May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heav'n's sun! Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.
