All Knowing and Ever Present

How precious to me Your thoughts,
How vast is the sum of them;
You see enemy onslaughts,
Knowing judgment will condemn.
If You would count them how many,
They are more than grains of sand;
But You will not let any,
In pilfering of the land.
I will still remain with You,
Since you would slay the wicked;
For You are faithful and true,
As evil is defeated.
Men of blood depart from me,
They speak malicious intent;
Enemies too blind to see,
For confessing to repent.
For they take Your name in vain,
I do hate those who hate You;
As I grieve because of pain,
Loathing of what they pursue.
A pure hate in hating them,
I count them being my foe;
On that day You will condemn,
Because my thoughts that You know.
Search me O God, know my heart,
Know my thoughts that are on You;
In my mind not to depart,
Always thoughts that I construe.
See if any grievous way,
Conceive as being evil;
Lead me so I do not stray,
As to avoid the devil.
