Lord, Thou Hast Searched Me

Lord, Thou has searched me, and dost know Wher-e'er I rest, wher-e-er I go; Thou know-est all that I have planned, And all my ways are in Thy hand. My words from Thee I can-not hide; I feel Thy power on ev-ery side; O won-drous know-ledge, awe-some might Un-fath-omed depth, un-mea-sured height! Where can I go a-part from Thee, Or whith-er from Thy pres-ence flee? In heaven? --it is Thy dwell-ing fair; In death's a-bode? --lo, Thou art there. If I the wings of morn-ing take, And far a-way my dwell-ing make, The hand that lead-eth me is Thine, And my sup-port Thy power di-vine. If deep-est dark-ness cov-er me, The dark-ness hid-eth not from Thee; To Thee both night and day are bright, The dark-ness shin-eth as the light. Trinity Hymnal #37 (Psalm 139:14-24) All that I am I owe to Thee; Thy wis-dom, Lord, has fash-ioned me. I give my Mak-er thank-ful praise, Whose won-drous works my soul a-maze. Ere in-to be-ing I was brought, Thine eye did see, and in my thought My life in all its per-fect plan Was or-dered ere my days be-gan. Thy thoughts, O God, how man-i-fold, More pre-cious un-to me than gold! I muse on their in-fin-i-ty, A-wak-ing I am still with Thee. The wick-ed Thou wilt sure-ly slay; From me let sin-ners turn a-way. They speak a-gainst the name di-vine; I count God's en-e-mies as mine. Search me, O God, my heart dis-cern; Try me, my in-most thought to learn; And lead me, if in sin I stray, To choose the ev-er-last-ing way.
