LyicsHave mercy on me, O my God;
In loving kindness hear my prayer;
Withdraw the terror of thy rod;
Lord, in thy tender mercy spare.
A perfect heart in me create,
Renew my soul in innocence;
Cast not the suppliant from thy gate,
Nor take thy holy Spirit hence.
Thy consolations, as of old,
Now to my troubled mind restore;
By thy free Spirit's might uphold,
And guide my steps to fall no more.
The broken heart in sacrifice
Alone may thine acceptance meet;
My heart, O God, do not despise,
Broken and contrite at thy feet!
