Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, in the day and the 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, and I Thy true heir;
Thou in me dwelling, and I in thy care.
Riches I heed not, nor all the world's praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, through all by days
Thou and Thou only, the first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my treasure Thou art.
High King of Heaven, when battle is done,
Grant heaven's joy to me, O bright Heaven’s Sun!
Christ of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.
Tr. Mary Elizabeth Byrne and Eleanor Henrietta Hull

Psalm 62(63):2-6,8-9
For you my soul is thirsting,
thirsting for you, O God my God.
1. O God, you are my God, for you I long;
for you my soul is thirsting.
My body pines for you
like a dry, weary land without water.
For you my soul is thirsting,
thirsting for you, O God my God.
2. So I gaze on you in the sanctuary
to see your strength and your glory.
For your love is better than life,
my lips will speak your praise.
For you my soul is thirsting,
thirsting for you, O God my God.
3. So I will bless you all my life,
in your name I will lift up my hands.
My soul shall be filled as with a banquet,
my mouth shall praise you with joy.
For you my soul is thirsting,
thirsting for you, O God my God.
4. For you have been my help;
in the shadow of your wings I rejoice.
My soul clings to you;
your right hand holds me fast.

My Jesus,
I believe that You are present
in this Holy Sacrament of the altar.
I love You above all things
and I passionately desire
to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come spiritually into my soul
so that I may unite myself wholly to You
now and forever. Amen.
Based on a prayer of St Alphonsus Liguorit
1. The King of love my shepherd is;
whose goodness faileth never
I nothing lack if I am his;
and he is mine for ever,
and he is mine for ever.
2. Where streams of living water flow,
my ransomed soul he leadeth
And where the verdant pastures grow
With food celestial feedeth,
with food celestial feedeth.
3. Perverse and foolish oft I strayed
but yet in love he sought me
And on his shoulder gently laid
And home, rejoicing, brought me,
and home, rejoicing, brought me.
4. In death's dark vale I fear no ill;
with thee dear Lord beside me;
Thy rod and staff my comfort still
hy cross before to guide me,
thy cross before to guide me.
5. And so through all the length of days,
thy goodness faileth never;
Good shepherd, may I sing thy praise
Within thy house forever,
within thy house forever.

Follow me, follow me,
leave your home and family,
leave your fishing nets and boats upon the shore.
Leave the seed that you have sown,
leave the crops that you’ve grown,
leave the people you have known and follow me.
The foxes have their holes
and the swallows have their nests,
but the Son of man has no place to lay down.
I do not offer comfort, I do not offer wealth,
but in me will all happiness be found.
Follow me, follow me,
leave your home and family,
leave your fishing nets and boats upon the shore.
Leave the seed that you have sown,
leave the crops that you’ve grown,
leave the people you have known and follow me.
If you would follow me,
you must leave old ways behind.
You must take my cross and follow on my path.
You may be far from loved ones,
you may be far from home
but my Father will welcome you at last.
Follow me, follow me,
leave your home and family,
leave your fishing nets and boats upon the shore.
Leave the seed that you have sown,
leave the crops that you’ve grown,
leave the people you have known and follow me.
Although I go away
you will never be alone,
for the Spirit will be there to comfort you.
Though all of you may scatter,
each follow his own path,
still the Spirit of love will lead you home.
