O that I knew where I might find Him,
that I might come even to His seat!
Behold, I go forward but He is not there,
and backward, but I cannot perceive Him.
On the left hand, where he doth work,
but I cannot behold Him: He hideth himself on the right hand.
Blessed are they that have not seen and yet have believed.
