I first heard this song when the Steve Pettit Evangelistic Team was at our church for a Sunday morning a few months ago. It was one of those “stop me in my tracks” moments — the song was so beautiful and spoke straight to my heart. When they spoke of working on a new recording, I hoped it would be on it…and it is. The new CD is Before You Now, taken from a line in this song. You can hear a clip here or here. I hope it blesses you as much as it did me.
It seems to echo thoughts from the end of Psalm 139 and Psalm 51.
Search me know me
Try me and see
Every worthless affection hidden in me
All I’m asking for is that You’d cleanse me Lord.
Create in me a heart that’s clean
Conquer the power of secret shame
Come wash away the guilty stain of all my sin.
Clothe me in robes of righteousness
Cover my nakedness with grace
All of my life before You now I humbly bring.
Search me know me
Try me and see.

Beautiful and balanced scripturally. I would love to hear it sung.
It reminds me of a chorus we sang at church as teenagers.
