Have mercy on me, O God
Have mercy on me, O God
I am calling on Your kindness
In accordance with Your love
Have mercy on me, O God

Verse 2
I know, God, that I have sinned
It?s You I have sinned against
Would You blot out my transgressions?
Would you come now and forgive?
I know, God, that I have sinned

Chorus
Oh, oh, oh, a broken, contrite heart
You will not turn away
Oh, oh, oh, Lord, open up my lips
That I might sing Your praise

Verse 3
God, wash me as white as snow
And carry Your lost child home
Come create in me a clean heart
Come and break this heart of stone
God, wash me as white as snow

Chorus
Oh, oh, oh, a broken, contrit? heart
You will not turn away
Oh, oh, oh, God, open up my lips
That I might sing Your praise

R?store to me the joy of my salvation
Renew in me a willing heart
And I will sing in praise of Your redemption
And I will sing Your mercy, God
Restore to me the joy of my salvation (Oh, oh, oh, a broken, contrite heart)
Renew in me a willing heart (You won't turn away)
And I will sing in praise of Your redemption (Oh, oh, oh, Lord, open up my lips)
And I will sing Your mercy, God (That I might sing Your praise, my God)
