Not Alone

⁷ Where could I go to get away from your spirit? Where could I go to escape your presence? ⁸ If I went up to heaven, you would be there. If I went down to the grave, you would be there too! ⁹ If I could fly on the wings of dawn, stopping to rest only on the far side of the ocean ¹⁰ even there your hand would guide me; even there your strong hand would hold me tight! ¹¹ If I said, “The darkness will definitely hide me; the light will become night around me,” ¹² even then the darkness isn’t too dark for you! Nighttime would shine bright as day, because darkness is the same as light to you!
