EbBe Thou my Abvision, O EbLord of my Bbheart;
CmNaught be all Abelse to me, Ebsave that Thou Bbart;
EbThou my best Abthought, by Ebday or by Bbnight,
CmWaking or Absleeping, Thy Bbpresence my Eblight.
 
EbBe Thou my Abwisdom, and EbThou my true Bbword;
CmI ever Abwith Thee and EbThou with the BbLord;
EbThou my great AbFather, and EbI Thy true Bbson;
CmThou in me Abdwelling, and BbI with Thee Ebone.
 
EbRiches I Abheed not, nor Ebman's empty Bbpraise,
CmThou mine in-Abheritance, Ebnow and al-Bbways;
EbThou and Thou Abonly, first Ebin my Bbheart,
CmHigh King of Abheaven, my Bbtreasure Thou Ebart.
 
EbHigh King of Abheaven, my Ebvictory Bbwon,
CmMay I reach Abheaven's joys, EbO bright heaven's BbSun!
EbHeart of my Abown heart, what-Ebever be-Bbfall,
CmStill be my Abvision, O BbRuler of Eball.
