Couplet 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

Couplet 2

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

To the High King of Heaven
The Light of the world
We sing Holy are You God
To the Father the Son
And the Spirit as One
We sing Holy are You God

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

Refrain

To the High King of Heaven
The Light of the world
We sing Holy are You God
To the Father the Son
And the Spirit as One
We sing Holy are You God

Couplet 4

Be Thou my vision in darkest of night
Be Thou my shield in the midst of the fight
Thy Word and wisdom through life be my guide
Til when in glory I kneel in Thy sight
