I had occasion to research that hymn some years ago. Found out it was only translated into English from
Rop tú mo baile (in the original Irish language) about 100 years ago.
Be Thou My Vision
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
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
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

One of the loveliest hymns, IMHO.

Just love this hymn. Your rendition a bit more refined.
The majesty of the Cathedral and its influence.
This version is as equally refined
Genteel version.

Grateful that the initiative was made to translate from Irish to English. That such a beautiful hymn would have been lost stateside is saddening. Lovely piece of work.
A more genteel version here:

Beautiful Thank YOU! If you don’t mind will be adding this to my hymnal for our prayer circles. Simple, yet so moving. Thanks, again!

Never dreamed VM would be singing a traditional hymn.
Remember his Brown Eyed Girl, Moondance from way back when. His recording here is quite moving.
Thank you for my new hymnal addition.
Blessings
