Well, for whatever immediate attraction counts for, I tend to be most immediately attracted to guys with nice eyes. In the long run that doesn't matter to me much at all, though. I find that the guy's heart for Christ and attitude toward others is what really attracts me. And I also find that guys who I didn't think were attractive originally, when they prove themselves to be God-and-people-loving, seem to become immensely more attractive physically too. And just the opposite-- guys who I think are very attractive originally can seem to become even physically ugly when their attitude proves ugly. Not that you asked about any of that, ha ha, but for some reason it seemed weird to me to make a post about what immediately attracts me to someone when I ultimately put very little stock in immediate attraction. :-P
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.
Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.
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.
