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.
2 Be thou my wisdom, and thou my true word;
I ever with thee and thou with me, Lord.
Thou my great Father; thine own may I be,
Thou in me dwelling and I one with thee.
3 Riches I heed not, nor vain, empty praise;
Thou mine inheritance, now and always:
Thou and thou only first in my heart,
High King of heaven, my treasure thou art.
4 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.

1 Oh, Dios de mi alma, sé tú mi visión;
nada te aparte de mi corazón.
Noche y día pienso yo en ti,
y tu presencia es luz para mí.
2 Sabiduría sé tú de mi ser,
quiero a tu lado mi senda correr;
como tu *hijo tenme, Señor,
siempre morando en un mismo amor.
3 Riquezas vanas no anhelo, Señor,
ni el hueco halago de la adulación;
tú eres mi herencia, tú mi porción,
Rey de los cielos, tesoro mejor.
4 Oh, Dios de gloria, de triunfo al final,
déjame el gozo del cielo alcanzar;
alma de mi alma, Dueño y Señor,
en vida y muerte sé tú mi visión.
