Be Thou My Vision - Jars of Clay

Be Thou My Vision in 2012. Be everything. Be all that my mind is consumed by. May I see only You. When I see the world, and its brokenness, may I see it through Your eyes. May I see and trust that You are sovereign, O Lord. May I see that You are My Great Father; that You have made me Your true son. That through Christ’s blood and resurrection; we are one. That You dwell in me, that You will never leave me. You are mine inheritance. I need nothing else; I need no-one else. Be first in my heart. Be the very reason that I do anything. May my life be shaped by the reality of who You are. May I fall to my knees often in reverence and fear. 

You are heart of my own heart

You are heart of my own heart

And nobody else could compare.

And whatever befall in 2012 - may You still be my Vision. Should I run out of money, still be my Vision. If my bipolar comes back to wrestle me, still be my Vision. Should You choose to take away those that I love, still be my Vision. If honours is too hard, or too much, still be my Vision. If I lose my lease, Lord, still be my Vision. If You should call me away from all the plans we have made for 2012, still be my Vision.

Whatever befall, Lord. I am Yours. Every part of my heart is Yours. Take it, and may it be a pleasing sacrifice to You.
