Lord you're near me every hour |
|
You would know the least thing |
|
You who see me from afar |
|
Sleeping or arising |
|
Lord before me and behind |
|
Infinite and ageless |
|
Such a number is too high |
|
I cannot attain it |
|
If to heaven I will fly |
|
You will be beside me |
|
If in Sheol I will lie |
|
Even there you'll find me |
|
If I fled on morning wings |
|
Far beyond the great sea |
|
Even there your hand will lead |
|
For I Am will guide me |
|
In the secret of the womb |
|
I was formed and molded |
|
I was skillfull and adorned |
|
wonderfully worthed |
|
You have numbered all my days |
|
Long before you gave them |
|
In the pages of the book |
|
They have all been gifted |
|
High and wondrous are your thoughts |
|
Fast beyond our telling |
|
If I count them they grow more |
|
I can never grasp them |
|
Search me God and know my heart |
|
Let evil never find me |
|
Lead me on your rigtheous path |
|
Sure and everlasting. |
