The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook ‎#82

82. God is always near me

1 God is always near me,
hearing what I say,
knowing all my thoughts and deeds,
all my work and play.

2 God is always near me;
in the darkest night
He can see me just the same
as by mid-day light.

3 God is always near me,
though so young and small;
not a look or word or thought,
but God knows it all.
