Seek and Seen

"And she called the name of the Lord that spake unto her, Thou God seest me; for she said, Have I also looked after Him that seeth me?" (Genesis 16:13). "O Lord, Thou hast searched me and known me.... See if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting" (Psalm 139:1,24).

When at first for God I sought,
I found Him by surprise.
Amazing truth! Who would have thought
God fixed on me His eyes?

My every thought and word and deed
Were pondered in His sight!
I'd sought for Him who saw my need
For love and life and light.

Lord, You've searched and known me well.
I seek You; I am seen.
Search me still, and thus dispel
My sin, and make me clean.
