It takes the Lord to give a melody
It takes the Lord to give a song
Only He knows what we really need to help us carry on
He knows yes indeed, and He knows everything
It takes the Lord to strengthen me each day
To carry my heavy load
It is His anointing that replenishes me; satisfies my thirsty soul
He knows yes indeed, and He knows everything
He knows everything; all about the pain
And the burdens we bear; just know He cares
There ain't nothin' He don't know
No place He won't go, nothing He won't do for me and you.
Yeah, there ain't nothin' He don't know
Yeah, He knows everything there is to know
The Lord, He has searched me
And He knows me all throughout
My downsitting and uprising, all my whereabouts
Whether shall I go from Him, whether shall I flee
Take the wings of morning, fly above the deep
Yeah, there ain't nothing He don't know
If I say to darkness "cover, hide me in the night",
It won't make a difference, 'cause to Him they're both alike
To ascend to heaven is my earnest prayer
There's no doubt within me, He will meet me there
Yeah, there ain't nothing He don't know
Yeah, He knows everything there is to know.
