Citizen Way - Psalm 139

Chorus / Description : The song Psalm 139 by Citizen Way is a reflection on Psalm 139 in the Bible. It acknowledges that God knows and sees everything about us, and it encourages us to invite God to search our hearts, thoughts, and lead us in the way everlasting. (Psalm 139:1-4, 23-24)

Psalm 139 Lyrics

Lord you have searched me
And you know me
You know when I sit and when I rise
You know all my thoughts and schemes
Every burden every fragile dream
You are familiar with all my ways
And before a word was even on my tongue
You knew it completely

Where can I go from your spirit
Where can I flee from your presence
If I soar among the heavens you are there
I can dig down deep to the lowest low
Or chase the east to catch the west
Or drift along the sea but your hand still guides me

There is no corner no hiding place
I can run to
No night is dark enough
To hide from your glory
You created me and know right where I stand

So search me and know my heart oh God
Test me and know my every thought
Judge me and lead me in the way everlasting

I look at your creation
And marvel at your handiwork
For I have been fearfully and wonderfully made
Your works are wonderful
Oh of this I can be sure
For even the greatest minds cannot comprehend you

There is no scale no theology
That can hold you
You've marked out my days
No secret can fool you
I no longer want to hide what you already see

So search me and know my heart oh God
Test me and know my every thought
Judge me and lead me in the way everlasting

I have found that the more I search and chase after You
The more I find You're chasing after me
After me
Even me

So search me and know my heart oh God
Test me and know my every thought
Judge me and lead me in the way everlasting

Search me and know my heart oh God
Test me and know my every thought
Judge me and lead me in the way everlasting
