GBe Thou my Cvision, O GLord of my Emheart

GNaught be all Celse to me, Dsave that Thou Gart

GThou my best Cthought, by Gday or by Emnight

GWaking or Csleeping, Thy Dpresence my Glight

GBe Thou my Cwisdom, and GThou my true Emword

GI ever Cwith Thee and DThou with me, GLord

GThou my great CFather, I GThy true Emson

GThou in me Cdwelling, and DI with Thee Gone

GBe Thou my Cbattle shield, Gsword for the Emfight

GBe Thou my Cdignity, DThou my deGlight

GThou my soul's Cshelter, Thou Gmy high Emtower

GRaise Thou me Cheavenward, O DPower of my Gpower

GRiches I Cheed not, nor Gman's empty Empraise

GThou mine inCheritance, Dnow and alGways

GThou and Thou Conly, first Gin my Emheart

GHigh King of Cheaven, my Dtreasure Thou Gart

GHigh King of Cheaven, my Gvictory Emwon

GMay I reach Cheaven's joys, DO bright heaven's GSun

GHeart of my Cown heart, whatGever beEmfall

GStill be my Cvision, O DRuler of Gall
