1 When I sleep, and when I wake
When my daily walks I take,
Though my eyes no God can see,
Still he ever looks at me.
2 When I speak a wicked word,
By my Saviour tis heard;
Though I seek from God to flee,
Still from Heaven he looks at me.
3 When I break this Holy day,
And indulge in sinful play,
Could I still so thoughtless be,
If I felt he looks at me?
4 When with wicked once I play,
When my heart forgets to pray,
Though I may forgetful be,
Still my Saviour looks at me.
5 When my angry passions rise,
God can hear my sinful cries;
When rebellious I would be,
Still he ever looks at me.
6 Every disobedient word,
False or cross, in heaven is heard,
Though no human eye can see,
God, my Saviour looks at me.
