Psalter number 382. A Vision of God - Psalm 139 |
1. Lord, Thou hast searched
me, and dost know |
Where'er I rest, where'er I
go; |
Thou knowest all that I have
planned, |
And all my ways are in Thy
hand. |
|
2. My words from Thee I cannot
hide, |
I feel Thy power on every
side; |
O wondrous knowledge, awful
might, |
Unfathomed depth, unmeasured
height! |
|
3. Where can I go apart from
Thee, |
Or whither from Thy presence
flee? |
In heaven? it is Thy dwelling
fair; |
In death's abode? lo, Thou art
there. |
|
4. If I the wings of morning
take, |
And far away my dwelling make, |
The hand that leadeth me is
Thine, |
And my support Thy power
divine. |
|
5. If deepest darkness cover
me, |
The darkness hideth not from
Thee; |
To Thee both night and day are
bright, |
The darkness shineth as the
light. |
