"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God."

(Matthew 5:8 -The Holy Bible, NIV Version)

Lord, grant me Your vision to see myself as You see me. Purify my heart. Let me take sides with Your picture rather than mine. It is downright hard for me to accept that You are enthralled by my beauty when I only see how much I do not measure up. And then, I look at the children You have lent me for awhile to nurture, and I see how enthralled I am by their beauty even though I am aware of their sinful nature. So, I humbly thank You. Be Thou My Vision.

In the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.

Be Thou My Vision

(Click here for the organ melody)

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.

Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;

Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;

Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:

Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.

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 Heaven’s Sun!

Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,

Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.
