Lord, Thou Hast Searched Me

Verse 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 hands.

Verse 2

My words from Thee I cannot hide, I feel Thy pow'r on ev'ry side; O wondrous knowledge, awful might, unfathomed depth, unmeasured height!

Verse 3

Where can I go apart from Thee, or whither from Thy presence flee? In heav'n? it is Thy dwelling fair; in death's abode? lo, Thou art there.

Verse 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 pow'r divine.

Verse 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.
