| A Screen Capture From The Video Below: Audrey Assad — Be Thou My Vision |
Hi!
According to wikipedia—The hymn "Be Thou My Vision" has a LONG history.
It apparently began life as a 6th century Irish melody.
Then, in 1912, Elanor Hull translated and published the most well known English version—and in 1919 the lyrics were set to a Irish folk tune.
This is the version that most people are familiar with today.
Recently I heard a beautiful version of this song by Christian Recording Artist Audrey Assad and have posted a video of that below.
I've included the lyrics under the video as well.
I pray this song Blesses you and fills your heart with God's unfailing Love!
Be Thou My Vision - Lyrics
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 man’s 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 Heaven’s joys, O bright Heav’n’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whate’er befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.
Heart of my own heart, whate’er befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and
believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are
justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
