Thou Knowest Lord

Thou knowest oh Lord my hour
Ordain the way I opt and efface my follies.
Count mine acquaintance, hence rule my perseverance.
I could not conceal from Thee.
Thou percievest my pulse and yearnings
Bestow tide upon tide
Season after season composest Thou for me.
No harm that I fall upon Thine hands ne’r capture.
No evil beset Thou not harness tight.
Thou art my Father who sparest me each moment.
I dwell in Thy tent no matter whereunto I yon
Thou rulest my conquest!
My cup and crown is Thine.
I’m stripped in Thy midst and ne’r adorned by naught however Thee.
I’m an appalling dust
Filth is my home.
Nevertheless Thou established mine advent anew.
I tally Thy ways of righteousness immeasurable than the hosts.
How couldst Thou be far from me?
How could I fail whence my strength is gone?
For my Lord reigns and He knows all.
Praise and fame is His alone!
