Weekly Pulpit Psalm 139:1-24 O lord, you have searched me, and known me.… : — While the Americans were blockading Cuba, several captains endeavoured to elude their vigilance by night, trusting that the darkness would conceal them as they passed between the American war-ships. But in almost every case the dazzling rays of a searchlight frustrated the attempt, and the fugitives' vessel was captured by the Americans. The brilliant searchlight sweeping the broad ocean and revealing even the smallest craft on its surface is but a faint type of the Eternal Light from which no sinner can hide his sin. (Weekly Pulpit.) Parallel Verses KJV: {To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.} O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. |
