There is something incredibly humbling—and freeing—about knowing that the Creator of the universe sees every part of us and still chooses to love us. Not the version of us we post on social media, but the real us. The anxious us. The struggling us. The hidden us.
I wrote this song because I needed to be reminded that God isn't scared of my mess. He already knows it. Psalm 139 tells us that He has searched us and knows us completely. He knows when we sit and when we rise; He knows our thoughts from afar. He even knows the number of hairs on our heads!
But this Psalm isn't just about God knowing us—it’s an invitation. It’s an invitation to let Him search us, to let Him remove the paths in our lives that lead away from Him, and to lead us into everlasting life. It’s about trusting that He knows what is best for us, even when we don't understand the road we are walking (Proverbs 3:5-6).
This song is my prayer today. If you are feeling unseen or overwhelmed, I pray that this reminder of God’s intimate knowledge of you brings you peace and courage. He wants to give you a new heart (Ezekiel 36:26), a gentle and quiet spirit (1 Peter 3:4), and to lead you into the fullness of life He has prepared for you.

Lyrics:
Lord, You have searched me and You know me
You know when I sit down and when I rise
You understand my thoughts even before they form
You hem me in, behind and before
Laying Your hand of protection upon me
There is nowhere I can go to escape Your presence
Even in my darkest moments
Your light finds me
I will trust in You with all my heart
I will not lean on what I think I know
In all my ways I remember You
And You will show me where to go
You make my broken paths run straight
I find rest and strength
As I wait on You (I wait on You)
Your Word is living
Active and sharp
A sword that reaches the soul
It finds the thoughts and the hidden intent
And makes the broken spirit whole
You search the mind and You test the heart
Fruit comes to the seeds that I start
Nothing is hidden from Your sight
You bring the shadows into the light
I will trust in You with all my heart
I will not lean on what I think I know
In all my ways I remember You
And You will show me where to go
You make my broken paths run straight
I find rest and strength
As I wait on You (I wait on You)
Please heal my heart of stone
That has grown cold and stubborn
Renew Your Holy spirit within me
Help me to cultivate the hidden beauty
Of a gentle and quiet spirit
Which is so precious in Your sight
I will trust in You with all my heart
I will not lean on what I think I know
In all my ways I remember You
And You will show me where to go
You make my broken paths run straight
I find rest and strength
As I wait on You (I wait on You)
I choose to trust in You with all my heart
I will not lean on my own limited understanding
Or try to figure everything out on my own
In my decisions and the paths I take
I commit my ways to You and seek Your direction
I trust that You are making my way straight
And leading me exactly where I need to be
I will trust in You with all my heart
I will not lean on what I think I know
In all my ways I remember You
And You will show me where to go
You make my broken paths run straight
I find rest and strength
As I wait on You (I wait on You)
Search me O God
And know my heart today.
Test me and know my anxious thoughts
See if there is any path in me that leads away from You
And lead me instead in the way of everlasting life in You
I will trust in You with all my heart
I will not lean on what I think I know
In all my ways I remember You
And You will show me where to go
You make my broken paths run straight
I find rest and strength
As I wait on You (I wait on You)
