Psalm 51<\/b>\u00a0–\u00a0Be gracious to me, God, according to Your faithfulness; According to the greatness of\u00a0Your compassion,\u00a0wipe out my wrongdoings. 2\u00a0Wash me thoroughly from my guilt And cleanse me from my sin. 3\u00a0For I\u00a0know my wrongdoings, And my sin is constantly before me.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

4\u00a0Against You, You only, I have sinned And done what is\u00a0evil in Your sight, So that\u00a0You\u00a0are justified\u00a0when You speak And\u00a0blameless when You judge. 5\u00a0Behold, I was\u00a0brought forth in guilt,<\/span>
\nAnd in sin my mother conceived me. 6\u00a0Behold, You desire\u00a0truth in the\u00a0innermost being, And in secret You will\u00a0make wisdom known to me. 7\u00a0Purify me\u00a0with hyssop, and I will be clean; Cleanse me, and I will be\u00a0whiter than snow. 8\u00a0Let me hear\u00a0joy and gladness, Let the\u00a0bones You have broken rejoice. 9\u00a0Hide Your face from my sins And wipe out all my guilty deeds. 10 Create in me a\u00a0clean heart, God, And renew a\u00a0steadfast spirit within me. 11\u00a0Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not take Your\u00a0Holy Spirit from me. 12\u00a0Restore to me the\u00a0joy of Your salvation, And sustain me with a\u00a0willing spirit. 13\u00a0Then\u00a0I will\u00a0teach wrongdoers Your ways,\u00a0<\/span>And sinners will\u00a0be\u00a0converted to You. 14\u00a0Save me from\u00a0the guilt of bloodshed, God,\u00a0the God of my salvation; Then\u00a0my\u00a0tongue will joyfully sing of Your righteousness. 15\u00a0Lord,\u00a0open my lips,\u00a0<\/span>So that my mouth may\u00a0declare Your praise. 16\u00a0For You\u00a0do not delight in sacrifice, otherwise I would give it; You do not take pleasure in burnt offering. 17\u00a0The sacrifices of God are a\u00a0broken spirit; A broken and a contrite heart, God, You will not despise. 18\u00a0By Your favor do good to Zion; Build the walls of Jerusalem. 19\u00a0Then You will delight in\u00a0righteous sacrifices, In\u00a0burnt offering and whole burnt offering; Then\u00a0bulls will be offered on Your altar.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Oh my Lord God, how tender and yet almighty are You.\u00a0 How can I be so special as to be adored by You?\u00a0 The answer is a treasure to know.\u00a0 It is not me who is special, You are the Special One.\u00a0 That is how Your love for me is explained.\u00a0 Dear God, how grand is this life with You that is a gift from You.\u00a0 Every day I walk on hallowed ground because You walk before me.\u00a0 Dear, lovely God, I love who You are!<\/p>\n

Oh Lord my God, You are infinitely gracious to me.\u00a0\u00a0Your graciousness is what my life nurses upon.\u00a0\u00a0Your kindness is the salve that heals my wounded soul.\u00a0\u00a0Oh Lord, oh Lord, my cry is eternally unto you.\u00a0\u00a0Even my failings are turned to beauty as Your mercy washes over me. I wake to the beauty of You, sad at my weaknesses.\u00a0\u00a0Oh to worship You as You deserve.\u00a0\u00a0Yet, I am weak.\u00a0\u00a0I see how You replace my ugliness with Your beauty.\u00a0\u00a0Infinite manifestations of grace upon one so undeserving as me.\u00a0\u00a0Your grace reveals my treachery to You and at the same time my wretched burning heart is being reshaped, remade, to enjoy Your peace.\u00a0\u00a0To realize what being one with You truly means is too great an honor.\u00a0\u00a0Oh Lord my God, You are infinitely gracious to me.\u00a0\u00a0Oh Lord!<\/p>\n

Oh my Lord God, Oh my Lord my God how lovely is the countenance of Your face.\u00a0\u00a0How blessed is the one who sees approval in Your eyes.\u00a0\u00a0Oh the joy of Your smile directed upon ones such as us. The thrill and anointing of You our Beautiful One, how overwhelming Your shining eyes, and Your smile of love, and Your approval is pure titillation.\u00a0\u00a0You with us, us in Your presence is the nectar of life.\u00a0\u00a0The tree of life is You.\u00a0\u00a0You are the water of eternal life.\u00a0\u00a0Your works for us are our food.\u00a0\u00a0You are our food.\u00a0\u00a0There is none like You Oh lovely God.\u00a0\u00a0None like You.\u00a0\u00a0May I be an ever burning sacrifice unto You!\u00a0\u00a0May the fire of You consume me that You are glorified and the consumption of me make me whole.<\/p>\n

Oh Lord my God.\u00a0\u00a0Oh Lord my God. Oh Lord my God.\u00a0\u00a0You are everything to me.\u00a0\u00a0Oh Lord my God!<\/p>\n
