You Are My Vision Lyrics

You are my vision, O King of my heart
Nothing else satisfies, only You Lord
You are my best thought by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, Your presence my light

You are my wisdom, You are my true word
I ever with You, and You with me Lord
You're my great Father, and I'm Your true son
You dwell inside me, together we're one
Oh, oh, come on church

You are my battle-shield, sword for the fight
You are my dignity, You're my delight (my shelter)
You're my soul's shelter and You're my high tower
Come raise me heavenward, O power of my power

Oh, oh, I don't riches

I don't want riches or man's empty praise
You're my inheritance, now and always
You and You only, the first in my heart
High king of Heaven, my treasure You are

Oh, oh high King

High King of Heaven, when victory's won
May I reach Heaven's joy, O bright Heaven's Son
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall
Still be my vision, O ruler of all

Heart of my own
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall
Still be my vision, O ruler of all
Oh, let's worship Him
Oh, oh, oh
