YOU ARE NEAR 

Refrain:  
   Yahweh I know you are near 
   Standing always at my side 
   You guard me from the foe 
   and You lead me in ways everlasting 

1. Lord You have searched my heart 
   and You know when I sit and when I stand 
   Your hand Is upon me protecting me from death 
   Keeping me from harm (Refrain) 

2. Where can I run from Your love? 
   If I climb to the heavens You are there 
   If I fly to the sunrise or sail beyond the sea 
   Still I'd find You there (Refrain) 

3. You know my heart and its ways 
   You who formed me before I was born 
   In the secret of darkness before I saw the sun 
   In my mother's womb (Refrain) 

4. Marvelous to me are Your works 
   How profound are Your thoughts my Lord 
   Even if I could count them they number as the stars 
   You would still be there (Refrain)
