Your ways are in full view of the Lord, and He examines all your paths.
Proverbs 5:21-23
There’s a God who’s standing
At Heaven’s door;
He’s looking this universe o’er;
And He sees each mortal
With a searching eye:
You can’t do wrong and get by.
Refrain
You can’t do wrong and get by,
No matter how hard you may try;
Nothing hidden can be,
Everything He doth see;
You can’t do wrong and get by.
Out into the darkness
You alone may go,
And seeds for the wicked one sow;
But an eye is watching
From the throne on high:
You can’t do wrong and get by.
Refrain
Yes, He knows your secrets,
Everything you do;
He knows that your life is untrue;
You can ne’er deceive Him,
There’s no use to try,
You can’t do wrong and get by.
