As a "visual" person, i prefer icons over text. But those icons have to make sense and be clear, not randomly chosen just to put something that looks nice there. When i am in doubt, i rely on hints.
Also text below icons waste space IMO. You only need to learn once what a button does/means (even when the icon isn't that clear, it'll still stay the same), not every time you use the program. But since not everyone thinks like that, i'd take the approach mentioned previously - make it an option.
