    I love listening to Irish and Celtic music. I can only pray that this arrangement does justice to such a beautiful genre.
    Be blessed.
    Verse 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.
    Verse 2
    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.
    Verse 3
    Be Thou my battle shield, sword for the fight;
    Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight;
    Thou my soul’s shelter, Thou my high tow’r:
    Raise Thou me heavenward, O pow’r of my pow’r.
    Verse 4
    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.
    Verse 5
    High King of Heaven, my victory won,
    May I reach Heaven's joys, O bright Heav’n’s Sun!
    Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
    Still be my vision, O ruler of all.
