O my LORD you search and you know me You know when I sit You know when I rise You know what I think You know where I am going Nothing O LORD can hide from Your Eyes You close me in behind and before me You shield me with Your mighty hand Such knowledge is too wonderful for me Too much for me to understand Where can I go to flee from you Spirit? And from Your presence where can I hide? Behold up in heaven You're there beside me In the depths of the darkness, You're by my side And if I ride on the wings of the morning Or settle on the far side of the sea Even there Your hand will guide me For Your right hand is holding me And if say the darkness will hide me The light will shine as bright as day So search me LORD and lovingly lead me In Your everlasting way
