Omniscient Omnipresence

('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
