Lyrics

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

Chorus

Open my eyes to see
What Your eyes see
Open my heart to follow
Where You lead

Verse 3

Riches I need 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

Chorus

Open my eyes to see
What Your eyes see
Open my heart to follow
Where You lead

Verse 4

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

Chorus

Open my eyes to see
What Your eyes see
Open my heart to follow
Where You lead

Chorus

Open my eyes to see
What Your eyes see
Open my heart to follow
Where You lead
Where You lead

Simple Hymns | Songs of Praise

Tuesday, September 22, 2020

On this Simple Hymns: Songs Of Praise album you'll find fresh hymns with the overarching theme of praise. Included in this album are 10 classic hymns like Charles Wesley’s "O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing" sung by Chris McClarney of Jesus Culture, the ever popular Irish hymn "Be Thou My Vision" sung by Kurtis Parks (Bridges Nashville), and the timeless hymn "Great Is Thy Faithfulness" which has been respectfully updated by Jonathan Hamrick to "Great Is Your Faithfulness" with a beautiful new chorus and bridge. Simple Hymns: Songs Of Praise is a very timely album of hymns that remind us that when times are difficult, we serve a God who is faithful, and worthy of our Praise!
