Lord You Know Me

Lord you search me

Lord you know me

You know my every thought

Even when I dare not voice them

When I doubt

You welcome me

With open arms

You pursue my anxious

Ever doubting heart

In all my wandering

In all my doubt

Still you love me

Still you pursue me

Even when I’m lost

You never let me go

You call my name

When I run from your countenance

You welcome me with open arms

Into your presence and

Let your light shine upon me

Even when I doubt and run you call me by name

Wherever I go

You’re with me

Holding out your hand

Beckoning me into your embrace

How I long to never run from

You again

But I am man

And I am weak

So run I do

But I always run back to you

In the end
