His works are perfect, and all His ways are just.  A faithful God Who does no wrong, upright and just is He. Deut 32:3,4

God is all Knowing, Omniscient -        O Lord , You have searched me and You know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; You perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; You are familiar with all my ways.  Before a word is on my tongue You know it completely, O Lord. Psalm 139:1-4

God is All seeing, omnipresent, is present everywhere -      Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from Your presence?

If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast.
