Psalm 139 Versification
O Lord, you search me and you know
Whene’er I stay or go,
Perceive my thoughts from far away
And guard me every day.
Before I plan to say a word,
You know it all, O Lord,
For all my days you planned for me,
Before one came to be.
If I could rise on wings of dawn,
Or hide where no man’s gone,
Yet even there your hand would be,
To guide and comfort me.
If I say, “darkness covers me,
And nothing God can see,”
Yet even dark is light to you,
And hides not what I do.
My God, O search and know my heart,
Cleanse every sinful part,
And lead me closer every day
To you, the only Way.
