131. Prayer for Pardon and Cleansing

1 In Thy great loving kindness, Lord,
Be merciful to me;
In Thy compassions great blot out
All my iniquity.

Refrain:
Wash me, wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow,
Wash me, wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

2 O wash me thoroughly from sin;
From all my guilt me cleanse;
For my transgressions I confess;
I ever see my sins. [Refrain]

3 And from Thy gracious presence, Lord,
O cast me not away;
Thy Holy Spirit utterly
Take not from me, I pray. [Refrain]

4 The joy which Thy salvation brings
Again to me restore;
With Thy free Spirit O do Thou
Uphold me evermore. [Refrain]
