Psalm 139

Phil Keaggy


Oh Lord you have know me 
When I rise and when I sit down 
You know every though from a far 
And wherever I go there You are 

Oh where could I go from your spirit 
Or where can I flee 
Your presence is near, I know You are here, 
I know You're with me 

Search me, oh God, and know my heart, 
Try me and know my anxious thoughts, 
And see if there be any hurtful way in me. 
And lead me in the ever lasting way. 

If I take the wings of the dawn, 
If I dwell in the deepest part of the sea 
Even there You will lead me 
There You will hold me close to Thee. 

And when I awake I find I am still in Your hand 
And if I should count Your thoughts toward me 
They'd out number the sand. 

Search me, oh God, and know my heart, 
Try me and know my anxious thoughts, 
And see if there be any hurtful way in me. 
And lead me in the ever lasting way. 

I will give thanks to Thee for I am fearfully 
And wonderfully made. 
Wonderful are Thy works and 
My soul knows it very well. 

Apart from You there's nothing that I can do 
For You are the source and giver of life, 
This I know is true. 
Create in me a clean heart so that I can be 
Willing to yield and able to hear 
Whenever You speak 

Search me, oh God, and know my heart, 
Try me and know my anxious thoughts, 
And see if there be any hurtful way in me. 
And lead me in the ever lasting way.
