“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.”
Versifier: Eleanor H. Hull
Translator: Mary E. Byrne, 1905
From the ancient Irish hymn, Rop tú mo Baile
This morning, my alarm interrupted an uplifting dream. God lights the way, even when I’m asleep.
Good morning, Lord. Thank You for dreams. Even when I’m asleep, You are at work restoring my soul — sometimes with a warning, sometimes a mystery, sometimes encouragement. I may not remember or understand, but Your design is always at work for my own good.
