Is there any place our children can go to avoid Your Spirit?
To be out of Your sight?
If they climb to the sky, You’re there!
If they go underground, You’re there!
If they fly on mornings wings to the far Western horizon,
You’d find them in a minute–
You’re already there waiting!
Then I said to myself, “Oh, He even sees them in the dark!
At night they are immersed in the light!”
It’s a fact: darkness isn’t dark to You; night and day, darkness and
light, they’re all the same to You.
Oh yes, you shaped our children first inside, then out;
You formed them in their mother’s wombs.
I thank you High God – You’re breathtaking!
Body and soul, they are wonderfully made!
I worship in adoration – what a creation!
(Adapted from Psalm 139 - changed from daughter to children)
