Lyrics for above hymn

Thou art before me, Lord

Author: Ian Pitt-Watson

Thou art before me, Lord, thou art behind,
And thou above me hast spread out thy hand;
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
Too high to grasp, too great to understand.

Then wither from thy Spirit shall I go,
And wither from thy presence shall I flee?
If I ascend to heaven thou art there,
And in the lowest depths I meet with thee.

If I should take my flight into the dawn,
If I should dwell on ocean’s farthest shore,
Thy mighty hand would rest upon me still,
And thy right hand would guard me evermore.

If I should say, ‘Darkness will cover me,
And I shall hide within the veil of night’,
Surely the darkness is not dark to thee,
The night is as the day, the darkness light.

Search me, O God, search me and know my heart;
Try me, O God, my mind and spirit try;
Keep me from any path that gives thee pain,
And lead me in the everlasting way.
