Psalm 139:1 - 6

Oh Lord Thou hast explored and quarried me;
Thy Spirit burrowest into my inner reins,
Dredging up and winnowing exquisitely,
To discover and open every hidden secret;
Nay, is there anything that can escape thy notice,
For every thought conceived in my heart
Is already known unto Thee.
Thou knowest all my doings beyond measure,
As if I were begirt by Thee on every side;
That I should not escape Thy Hand.
Thy knowledge is sublime.......too wondrous;
For the words of a man can not express
The truth of the absoluteness with which
All things stand patent to the Eye of God:
A knowledge having neither bound nor measure,
And only contemplated with conscious imbecility.
