1 In your kindness, O God, be gracious to me, 2Wash me clean of my guilt, 3For well I know my transgressions, 4Against you, only you, have I sinned, 5See! In guilt was I brought to the birth, 6It’s the innermost truth you desire, 7Purge me clean with hyssop, 8Fill me with joy and gladness, 9Hide your face from my sins, 10Create me a clean heart, O God, 11Cast me not forth from your presence, 12Give me back the joy of your help, 13I will teach your ways to transgressors, 14Save me from blood, O God, 15Open my lips, O LORD, 16For in sacrifice you have no pleasure, 17The sacrifice pleasing to God 18Do good in your pleasure to Zion, 19Then will you welcome the due forms of sacrifice,
