Search me, God, and know my heart

Search me, God, and know my heart

Author: Claus August Wendell
Tune: WENNERBERG
Published in 3 hymnals

Representative Text

Search me, God, and know my heart,
Lord of truth and mercy;
Try me, thou who from afar
Knowest all my secrets;
And if any wicked way
Should be found within me,
Blessed Saviour, lead thou me
In the way eternal.

Amen.
