Be Thou My Vision

Waltz · 3/4 · G major

Be Thou My Vision is a traditional Irish melody associated with the ancient hymn text Slane, which is named after the hill in County Meath where Saint Patrick is said to have lit a fire. The tune is written in G major with a 3/4 meter, giving it the graceful, flowing rhythm and character of a waltz. Because its exact early origins remain uncertain, it is best known through its preservation in traditional folk collections and its widespread adoption in Christian worship.
