"Be Thou my Vision"

Published January 5th, 2018 by Ccwestside

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

This hymn played over and over in my head leading up to the New Year. When meditating on it, I couldn’t move much past the first line: 

"Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart” 

This new year, Lord, let me see You in everything. Be all that I see. May I see Your Glory in the ordinary everyday moments, in the loud busyness may I hear Your still, small voice and find peace. May I see Your love in the faces of those around me and give me Your heart to love them, Lord. 

"Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart”

Help me to keep my eyes on You and to "Set my mind on the things above, not on things that are on the earth" (Colossians 3:2). The hope of Heaven that can only be found in You.

"Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart”

Lord give me vision of what You have next for me. Stir in my heart a desire for Your will & Your way, and keep my eyes on the path You have laid out for me. 

"Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart”

Reign in me and be the Lord of my heart.
