From Thee, O LORD

Henry Francis Lyte • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 139

Verse 1

From Thee, O LORD, I came at first, The creature of Thy hand; Thy providence my life has nursed, And by Thy grace I stand.

Verse 2

Each member of my wondrous frame, Displays Thy skill and power; And countless benefits proclaim, Thy love from hour to hour.

Verse 3

Down in Thine arms at night I lie; Thou watchest while I sleep. I wake at morn; Thou still are nigh, My soul to tend and keep.

Verse 4

Search me, O LORD; my spirit prove; From sin O set me free: Ad make my heart return the love, It daily shares from Thee.
