1. Be gracious to me, God,according to Your faithful love;according to Your abundant compassion,blot out my rebellion.
2. Wash away my guiltand cleanse me from my sin.
3. For I am conscious of my rebellion,and my sin is always before me.
4. Against You — You alone — I have sinnedand done this evil in Your sight. So You are right when You pass sentence;You are blameless when You judge.
5. Indeed, I was guilty when I was born;I was sinful when my mother conceived me.
