Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Have mercy on me Oh God in your kindness
In your compassion blot out my offence
O wash me more and more from my guilt and
cleanse me from my sin
VERSE 2
My offences Truly I know them
My sin is always before me against
you alone have I sinned what is evil in your
sight I have done
VERSE 3
That you may be justified when you give sentence
And be without reproach when you judge
O see in guilt I was born a sinner was
I conceived
VERSE 4
Indeed you love truth in the heart and in the secret
Of my heart teach me wisdom O purify
me then I shall be clean O wash me I shall be
whiter than snow
CHORUS
For the sake of his sorrowful passion
have mercy on us and on the whole world
