From My Iniquity Wash Me Thoroughly

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.
