1. God, be merciful to me because of your faithful love. Because of your great compassion, erase all the wrongs I have done.
2. Scrub away my guilt. Wash me clean from my sin.
3. I know I have done wrong. I remember that sin all the time.
4. I did what you said is wrong. You are the one I have sinned against. I say this so that people will know that I am wrong and you are right. What you decided is fair.
5. I was born to do wrong, a sinner before I left my mother’s womb.
6. You want me to be completely loyal, so put true wisdom deep inside of me.
7. Remove my sin and make me pure. Wash me until I am whiter than snow!
