Liz Cornwell's 'The God Who Sees' is a worship song that reflects on God's intimate awareness of every person's struggles and emotions. The lyrics emphasize that God, as the creator, sees beyond outward appearances into the deepest afflictions and fears. The song draws comfort from the idea that God hears every cry and collects every tear, offering reassurance that even when faith feels weak, God's loving gaze remains. It echoes the biblical concept of El Roi, the God who sees, as found in the story of Hagar. The repeated declaration 'You are the God who sees me' reinforces trust in God's personal care and presence.

The creator of the universe 

The maker of my soul 

You see me 


The God most high 

You are the God who sees me 

When my faith is dim 

And fear comes creeping in

You see me 


I can trust in You 

My times are in You 

You see me 


Every affliction 

And distress of my soul 

The deepest of struggles 

That no one else knows 

You hear every cry 

And You bottle each tear 

You are the God who sees me 


Oh You've searched me 

And You've known me 

You've seen me 

And still You love me 

You are Lord 

In You I will trust 

You are the God who sees me 


Oh You've searched me 

And You've known me 

You've seen me 

And still You love me 

You are Lord 

In You I will trust 

You are the God who sees me 

You are the God who sees me 

You are the God who sees me
