Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #100 (1934) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 God be merciful to me,
On Thy grace I rest my plea;
Plenteous in compassion Thou,
Blot out my transgressions now;
Wash me, make me pure within,
Cleanse, O cleanse me from my sin.
2 My transgressions I confess,
Grief and guilt my soul oppress;
I have sinned against Thy grace
And provoked Thee to Thy face;
I confess Thy judgment just,
Speechless, I Thy mercy trust.
3 I am evil, born in sin;
Thou desirest truth within.
Thou alone my Savior art,
Teach Thy wisdom to my heart;
Make me pure, Thy grace bestow,
Wash me whiter than the snow.
4 Broken, humbled to the dust
By Thy wrath and judgment just,
Let my contrite heart rejoice
And in gladness hear Thy voice;
From my sins O hide Thy face,
Blot them out in boundless grace. Topics: Cleansing From Sin ; Confession of Sin; Conversion; Grace of God; Heart Claimed by God of Christ; Original Sin; Reconciliation; Salvation; Sorrow for Sin; Total Depravity Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English Tune Title: AJALON (GETHSEMANE)
