Prayer for our Nation: Have mercy O LORD!
O LORD HAVE MERCY
Have mercy on me, O LORD, according to Your great mercy.
According
to Your tender mercies remove my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquities, and
cleanse me from my sins.
I knowingly
confess my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
Against
You only have I sinned and done evil before You; O LORD, please forgive me and
make me right before you.
But
behold, I was formed in iniquity: and in sin did my mother conceive me.
LORD,
sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, make
me whiter than snow.
Open my ears and
make me hear of joy and gladness and my bones that have been humbled shall
rejoice.
O LORD, create in
me a clean heart.
O LORD make anew, a
righteous spirit within me.
O LORD, do not cast
me away from Your presence; and take not Your Spirit from me.
O LORD, restore
unto me the joy of Your salvation and uphold me with a willing spirit.
Behold, You
desire truth in my innermost being: make me to understand wisdom secretly.
I will
teach those that are unjust Your ways: and sinners shall be converted unto
You.
Deliver me from blood, O LORD, the God of my
salvation: and my tongue shall sing of Your righteousness.
O
LORD, open my lips: and my mouth shall spring forth Your praise.
Sacrifices of God are broken spirits: dejected and contrite hearts, O LORD
do not despise me. Create in me a clean heart and make a right spirit within me.
Deal
favourably, O Lord, in Your good pleasure unto Zion: build the walls of
Jerusalem.
Then You will be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness,
with small and large burnt offerings: then shall they lay calves upon
your altar.
