Be Thou My Vision Written By Ancient Irish Hymn

A deeply loved Celtic hymn expressing total devotion and dependence on God.

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

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

Riches I heed not nor mans empty praise
Thou mine inheritance now and always
Thou and Thou only first in my heart
High King of heaven my treasure Thou art

High King of heaven my victory won
May I reach heavens joys O bright heavens Sun
Heart of my own heart whatever befall
Still be my vision O Ruler of all

Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah Written By William Williams

A powerful Welsh hymn expressing trust in God as guide protector and provider.

Guide me O Thou great Jehovah
Pilgrim through this barren land
I am weak but Thou art mighty
Hold me with Thy powerful hand

Bread of heaven bread of heaven
Feed me till I want no more
Feed me till I want no more

Open now the crystal fountain
Whence the healing stream doth flow
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through

Strong Deliverer strong Deliverer
Be Thou still my strength and shield
Be Thou still my strength and shield

When I tread the verge of Jordan
Bid my anxious fears subside
Death of deaths and hells destruction
Land me safe on Canaans side

Songs of praises songs of praises
I will ever give to Thee
I will ever give to Thee
