”But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ.What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things.” (Philippians 3:7-8a The essence of ‘Be Thou My Vision’)
This well-known, traditional Irish hymn has lasted through the centuries because the lyrics remind us of the most important thing in the Christian’s life: that the Lord would be our ‘vision’. Therefore, echo the prayer of this song and ask the Lord Jesus to be the first thing in your heart, and to be with you for evermore.
Enjoy Daniel Woolley’s rhythmic and exciting orchestration of this classic hymn. The unique Celtic percussion and 4/4 setting bring rich musical energy to the fantastic words of the song!
