¶Lyrics / Text

Have mercy upon me, O God, after thy Great Goodness, and according to the multitude of thy mercy, do away mine offences. O give me the Comfort of thy help again, and Stablish me with thy free Spirit; Cast me not away from thy presence, and take not thy Holy Spirit from me. Thou shalt open my lips, O Lord, and my mouth shall shew thy Praise; Then shall I teach thy ways unto the wicked, and sinners shall be converted un-to thee. Then shall thou be pleased with the Sacrifice of Righteousness, with Burnt offerings and oblations, and my tongue shall sing of thy righteousness. The Sacrifice of God is a troubled Spirit, a broken and Contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
