O [D]God you [G]search me and you [A]know [D]me,
All my [D]thoughts lie [G]open to your [A]gaze.
When I [Bm]walk or [G]lie down you are [D]before [G]me:
Ever the [Em]maker and [G]keeper [A]of my [D]days.
You [D]know my [G]resting and my [A] [D]rising.
You [D]discern my [G]purpose from [A]afar,
And with [Bm]love [G]everlasting you [D]besiege [G]me:
In every [Em]moment of [G]life and [A]death, you [D]are.
[D]Before a [G]word is on my [A]tongue, [D]Lord,
You [D]have known [G]it’s meaning all the [A]way through,
You are [Bm]with me [G]beyond my [D] [G]understanding:
God of my [Em]present, [G]past and [A]future, [D]too.
[D]Although your [G]spirit is [A]upon [D]me,
Still I [D]search for [G]shelter from your [A]sight.
There is [Bm]nowhere on [G]earth I can [D]escape [G]you:
Even the [Em]darkness is [G]radiant [A]in your [D]light.
For [D]you [G]created me and [A]shaped [D]me,
Gave me [D]life [G]within my mother’s [A]womb.
For the [Bm]wonder of [G]who I am I [D]praise [G]you:
Safe in your [Em]hands, all [G]creation [A]is made [D]new.
