Search me, O God! my actions try

- Search me, O God! my actions try,
- and let my life appear,
- as seen by Thine all-searching eye,
- to mine my ways make clear.
- Search all my sense, and know my heart,
- who only canst make known,
- and let the deep, the hidden part
- to me be fully shown.
- Throw light into the darkened cells
- where passion reigns within;
- quicken my conscience till it feels
- the loathsomeness of sin.
- Search all my thoughts, the secret
- springs,
- the motives that control;
- the chambers where polluted things
- hold empire o'er the soul.
- Search, till Thy fiery glance has cast
- its holy light through all,
- and I by grace am brought at last
- before Thy face to fall.
- Thus prostrate I shall learn of Thee
- what now I feebly prove,
- that God alone in Christ can be
- unutterable love
