Oh, 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'm going
Nothing, oh, 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 Your 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 rise 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 I say the darkness will hide me
The night will shine as bright as day
So search me, Lord, love and lead me
In Your everlasting way
