Description
"O Lord, You have searched me and known me. You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar. You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and are intimately acquainted with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O Lord, You know it all. You have enclosed me behind and before, and laid Your hand upon me." - Psalm 139: 1-5
Lyrics
If I take the wings of the dawn If I make my bed in the flames You are there. You are strong I can’t escape I am enclosed behind and before And even before there’s a word on my tongue It’s known to You Whenever I sit, whenever I rise Your eyes they follow my ways. My days Are known to You I can’t break from Your touch My heart is open wide Search it my love If I say the brightness soon will fade Afraid the day will soon be night To You, they’re the same Night and light are alike Where I am, there your hand will be Faithfully, and I will tell How skillfully you lead me My soul knows well
