Have mercy upon me O God

Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 51 Lyrics: 1 Have mercy upon me, O God after thy great goodness: according to the multitude of thy mercies do away mine offenses. 2 Wash me thoroughly from my wickedness: and cleanse me from my sin. 3 For I acknowledge my faults: and my sin is ever before me. 4 Against thee only have I sinned and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified in thy saying and clear when thou art judged. 5 Behold I was shapen in wickedness: and in sin hath my mother conceived me. 6 But lo thou requirest truth in the inward parts: and shalt make me to understand wisdom secretly. 7 Thou shalt purge me with hyssop and I shall be clean: thou shalt wash me and I shall be whiter than snow. 8 Thou shalt make me to hear joy and gladness: that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 9 Turn thy face from my sins: and put out all my misdeeds. 10 Make me a clean heart O God: and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence: and take not thy Holy Spirit from me. 12 O give me the comfort of thy help again: and establish me with thy free Spirit. 13 Then shall I teach thy ways unto the wicked: and sinners shall be converted unto thee. 14 Deliver me from blood-guiltiness O God thou that art the God of my health: and my tongue shall sing of thy righteousness. 15 Thou shalt open my lips O Lord: and my mouth shall shew thy praise. 16 For thou desirest no sacrifice else would I give it thee: but thou delightest not in burnt offerings. 17 The sacrifice of God is a troubled spirit: a broken and contrite heart O God shalt thou not despise. 18 O be favorable and gracious unto Sion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem. 19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifice of righteousness with the burnt-offerings and oblations: then shall they offer young bullocks upon thine altar. Glory be to the Father and to the Son: and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be: world without end. Amen.
