.....Or Title: All-knowing, Everywhere-present.
Tune: Charity
('Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost')
Psalm 139 v.14-18
**********
I will praise you for I be
Fearfully, wonderfully
Made by you, Lord, marvellous
Are your works to us
That my soul knows very well
My frame was not hid, I tell
Not hid from you when you made
Me, your plans outlaid
When you made me in secret
Skilfully, when none as yet
Of my members were written
In your life-book then
How precious also are your
Thoughts unto me, ever sure
O God! how great the sum be
Of your thoughts to me!
If I should count them, they are
More than I can count by far
More than number of sand's grains
Comfort my soul gains

Great write, Orchi! By the way, P is screaming that the omniscient presence of spinach is Cthulu’s Call! Beware! 🤪🥬
Thank you T. Doh! Why must Popeye always ruin any sensible comments we make?! lol.
LOL! He just doesn't stuff it...except with Spinach! Doh! LOL! 😂
Popeye's everywhere-present, and that's a fact. Dunno if he's all-knowing though. Well, he is about one thing, but we can't answer that here. lol.
LOL! Yeah...omnipresent...yes. Omniscient? Ah-gah-gah-gah-glug-glug? Come again?
Sooo..... he is only a expert in one thing - is omniscient in it. What one thing? Don't answer that! lol.
LOL! Exactly. In THAT thing...total omniscience. Otherwise he has spinach brain! It's a thing!
How longer will he trick us into thinking it's all due to the spinach?! lol.
LOL! As long as he can, mate! Glug *burp
Good one Orchi.
