Psalm 139

Lord you search me and you know me
When I sit and when I stand
You understand my thoughts from afar
Behind me and before me
Your hand is there to guide me
Too wonderful for me
This knowledge is beyond my reach
Before a word is on my tongue
You know it all before it has begun

I praise you God
That I am fearfully
Wonderfully made

Where can I hide from your presence?
Where can I flee from your face?
If I climb to the heavens you are there
If I lie in the grave you are there
If I take the wings of the dawn
Or dwell at the sea’s furthest end
Even there your hand would guide me
Your right hand hold me fast
For you night is as the day
For you light and darkness are the same

I praise you God
That I am fearfully
Wonderfully made

In secret
As in the depths of the earth
You formed my inmost being
My very self you knew
My bones were not hidden from you
Knit me in my mother’s womb
