Full Lyrics
REFRAIN
Have mercy, O Lord, for we have sinned.
VERSE 1
Have mercy on me, O God, according to your merciful love;
according to your great compassion, blot out my transgressions.
Have mercy on me, O God, according to your merciful love;
Wash me completely from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
VERSE 2
My transgressions, truly I know them; my sin is always before me.
Against you, you alone, have I sinned; what is evil in your sight I have done.
VERSE 3
Create a pure heart for me, O God; renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me away from your presence; take not your holy spirit from me.
VERSE 4
Restore in me the joy of my salvation; sustain in me a willing spirit.
O Lord, open my lips and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.
