Psalm 51

With hyssop purge me, Lord,
And so I clean shall be;
I shall with snow in whiteness vie,
When purified by thee.

Make me to hear with joy
Thy kind forgiving voice;
That so the bones which thou hast broke
May with fresh strength rejoice.

Blot out my crying sins,
Nor me in anger view;
Create in me a heart that's clean,
An upright mind renew.

To Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
The God whom heav'ns triumphant host,
Be glory as in ages past,
Now is, and so shall last. Amen.
