Oh Lord you have know me
When I rise and when I sit down
You know every though from a far
And wherever I go there You are
Oh where could I go from your spirit
Or where can I flee
Your presence is near, I know You are here,
I know You're with me
Search me, oh God, and know my heart,
Try me and know my anxious thoughts,
And see if there be any hurtful way in me.
And lead me in the ever lasting way.
If I take the wings of the dawn,
If I dwell in the deepest part of the sea
Even there You will lead me
There You will hold me close to Thee.
And when I awake I find I am still in Your hand
And if I should count Your thoughts toward me
They'd out number the sand.
Search me, oh God, and know my heart,
Try me and know my anxious thoughts,
And see if there be any hurtful way in me.
And lead me in the ever lasting way.
I will give thanks to Thee for I am fearfully
And wonderfully made.
Wonderful are Thy works and
My soul knows it very well.
Apart from You there's nothing that I can do
For You are the source and giver of life,
This I know is true.
Create in me a clean heart so that I can be
Willing to yield and able to hear
Whenever You speak
Search me, oh God, and know my heart,
Try me and know my anxious thoughts,
And see if there be any hurtful way in me.
And lead me in the ever lasting way.
