Lyrics
Have mercy on me, O God,
According to your steadfast love;
According to your abundant mercy
And blot out my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
And cleanse me from my sin.
For I know my transgressions,
My sin is ever before me.
To you alone, against you, I sinned,
Done evil in your sight,
You are justified and against me testified.
I'm guilty since my birth.
O Lord, open up my lips,
My mouth declares your praise.
You don't delight in sacrifice;
If I gave burnt-offerings, you would not be pleased.
The sacrifice you want is our hearts.
You desire truth in my soul;
So teach me wisdom in my heart.
Purge me my Lord, and I shall be clean;
And whiter more than snow.
Let me hear glad joy;
My crushed bones let rejoice.
And blot out all my sins.
O Lord, open up my lips,
My mouth declares your praise.
You don't delight in sacrifice;
If I gave burnt-offerings, you would not be pleased.
The sacrifice you want is our hearts.
Give me a clean heart, O God,
And put a steadfast spirit in me.
Don't cast me off, send me from your presence,
Don't take your spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy, salvation from the Lord,
Give me a willing spirit.
Then I will teach all your ways,
And sinners will return to you.
Deliver me from bloodshed, God,
O God of my salvation,
And my tongue will sing, deliverance you'll bring.
O, open my lips,
O Lord, open up my lips,
My mouth declares your praise.
You don't delight in sacrifice;
If I gave burnt-offerings, you would not be pleased.
The sacrifice you want is our hearts.
