1 day to Christmas....



Be thou my vision

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.



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'ns Son!
                                              Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
                                  Still be my vision, O ruler of all.

Irish Hymn

I heard this hymn being sung for the first time many years ago on a Christmas Eve....brings back fond memories. This hymn always gives me strength, courage and perseverance......

Blessed Christmas Eve........
