8 The Lord shall make good his loving-kindness toward me: yea, thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever; despise not then the works of thine own hands.
DAY 29 MORNING PRAYER
PSALM 139. Domine, probasti.
Lord, thou hast searched me out and known me: thou knowest my down-sitting and mine up-rising, thou understandest my thoughts long before.
2 Thou art about my path, and about my bed: and spiest out all my ways.
3 For lo, there is not a word in my tongue: but thou, O Lord, knowest it altogether.
4 Thou hast fashioned me behind and before: and laid thine hand upon me.
5 Such knowledge is too wonderful and excel lent for me: I cannot attain unto it.
6 Whither shall I go then from thy Spirit: or whither shall I go then from thy presence?
7 If I climb up into heaven, thou art there: if I go down to hell, thou art there also.
