...
- Create in me a clean heart, O God
A clean heart O God, create in me.
- O God, in your goodness
Have mercy on me.
In your compassion
Wipe out my offense.
Thoroughly wash me from my guilt,
And cleanse me from my sins.
- For I acknowledge my offense
And my sin is always before me;
Against only you have I sinned,
And done what is evil in your eyes.
- A clean heart create for me, O God,
A steadfast spirit renew in me.
Cast me not out
From your presence, O God.
Take not your Holy Spirit from me.
- Give us back the joy of our salvation,
And renew in us a willing spirit.
O God, open my lips,
Lord, open my lips.
And we will sing your praise.
