From my iniquity

From my iniquity Wash me thoroughly, And from my sin cleanse me. For I do know my transgressions, And my sin’s before me continually.

Behold, You delight in truth In the inward parts; And in the hidden part You would make known wisdom to me. Purge my sin with hyssop, and I’ll be clean.

Let me hear gladness and joy, That the bones You’ve broken, May exult, O God! Do hide Your face from all my sins, O God, blot out all my iniquities.

Create in me a clean heart, And renew a steadfast Spirit within me. Do not cast me from Your presence, And sustain me with a willing spirit.

The sacrifices of God Are a broken spirit; O God, You won’t despise A broken and a contrite heart; For in sacrifice You do not delight.

O God, do good unto Zion; Build the walls of Jerusalem.
