The eyes of the LORD are in every place
Beholding good and evil in man,
And nothing escapes His Omniscience--
Tho'some seek to avoid His scan.

Some think it's "invasion of privacy"
That with God all lies naked and bare,
True, He's not an "Absentee Landlord"
But a God who really does care!

Thus in the eyes of the true Believer
'Tis a Blessing afforded within,
God in His care, will always be there--
And we're never truly alone.

Though some resent it as an intrusion
Let us be those who appreciate,
The eyes of the LORD are in every place--
Looking out for those seeking His Face.

Very true, but in my opinion, I think those that see God's knowledge of everything we do/think, etc as an intrusion only think so because they have stuff to hide. Stuff they know is wrong therefore do not even wish God to know, because they know it is wrong in God's eyes, therefore not wanting God's eyes on them. Those I think are the people (as well as those that dont even know about Him) that we need to lead to Christ. Yet I know there are people who claim to be Christians who believe the same thing, so with those people I think are ones that we need to pray even harder for so that they stop doing the things they dont want God to see, or ask forgiveness....whatever they have to do so they are not ashamed to have God watching them. But thats my opinion I think this is a very great message though! Thank you for posting it!
