Psalm 139 - Lead Me, O Lord, In The Way Everlasting

There's always something to learn from a Psalm. I love the poetic descriptions in this one. It's one of my favourites and super special. It reminds me of how perfectly held I am, by God. He is everywhere with me, holding my hand. Responsorial Psalm Ps 139(138):1-3. 7-8. 9-10. 13-14b. ℟24b. Image by Dolina Modlitwy, with thanks.

Transcript

Lead me, O Lord, In the way everlasting. Oh Lord, You search me and you know me. You yourself know my resting and my rising. You discern my thoughts from afar. You mark when I walk or lie down. You know all my ways through and through. Lead me, O Lord, In the way everlasting. Oh, Where can I go from your spirit? Or where can I flee from your face? If I climb the heavens, You are there. If I lie in shale, You are there. Lead me, O Lord, In the way everlasting. If I take the wings of the dawn. Or dwell at the sea's furthest end. Even there, Your hand would lead me. Your right hand would hold me fast. Lead me, O Lord, In the way everlasting. For it was you who formed my inmost being, Knit me together in my mother's womb. I thank you, Who wonderfully made me. How wonderful are your works. Lead me, O Lord, In the way everlasting.
