Old Testament

Psalms 139:7-13 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

7. From thy Sp'rit whither shall I go?or from thy presence fly?

8. Ascend I heav'n, lo, thou art there;there, if in hell I lie.

9. Take I the morning wings, and dwellin utmost parts of sea;

10. Ev'n there, Lord, shall thy hand me lead,thy right hand hold shall me.

11. If I do say that darkness shallme cover from thy sight,Then surely shall the very nightabout me be as light.

12. Yea, darkness hideth not from thee,but night doth shine as day:To thee the darkness and the lightare both alike alway.

13. For thou possessed hast my reins,and thou hast cover'd me,When I within my mother's wombinclosed was by thee.
