lyrics

Music: Eero Tertsunen & Mikaela Akrenius
Lyrics: Mikaela Akrenius

You have searched me, Lord, and you know me.
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.

How precious to me are your thoughts, God!
How vast is the sum of them!
If I could count them, they would outnumber the sand.
When I awake, I am still with you.

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too high for me to attain.

You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.

You have enclosed me behind and before,
and you have placed your hand upon me.

Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there you will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.

I will praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that very well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
And in your book were written all of my days
before one of them came to be.

How precious to me are your thoughts, God!
How vast is the sum of them!
If I could count them, they would outnumber the sand.
When I awake, I am still with you.

If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,”
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness and light are alike to you.

Search me, God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.

Psalm 139
