O Lord, take a look in the corners and cracks,
Where thoughts wander and sneak in the back.
Shine light on the places I often don’t see.
Show me the truth of what lives inside me.
Please peek into my attic where old memories hide,
Check in my basement where I’ve pushed things aside.
If something isn’t right—is selfish or wrong,
Replace it with love that is steady and strong.
Examine my motives, my whispers, my ways,
The words that I speak, showing how the truth weighs.
If any part wanders from what’s right, trying to ignore,
Please steer me back gently. Don’t let me stray more.
For I want to know you and walk in your light,
To follow your footsteps and choose what is right.
So search me completely and guide me anew—
Each day, every moment, I want to please you.
