Verse 1

O', God, you search me, and you know me

G/B      D/F#       G      Bm          Asus A

All my thoughts lie open to your gaze

            Bm   Bm/A  G            A/G F#m    Bm Bm/E

When I walk or lie down, you are before me

GM7        Em7 D/F#    G      A         D

'Ever the maker and keeper of my days

Verse 2

You know my resting and my rising

You discern my purpose from afar

And with love everlasting, you besiege me

In ev'ry moment of life or death, you are

Verse 3

Before a word is on my tongue, Lord

You have known its meaning through and through

You are with me beyond my understanding

God of my present, my past and future, too.

Verse 4

Although your Spirit is upon me

Still I search for shelter from your light

There is nowhere on Earth I can escape you

Even the darkness is radiant in your sight.

Verse 5

For you created me and shaped me

Gave me life within my mother's womb

For the wonder of who I am, I praise you

Safe in your hands, all creation is made new

Mmm, all creation is made new.
