be thou my vision, o Lord of my heart;

naught be all else to me, save that thou art, -

thou my best thought, in the day and the 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;

be thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight,

be thou my armour, and be thou my might.
