Psalm 51: O Lord, I Offer My Heart

“Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.

Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise” Psalm 51:1-17 (KJV).

  3. Hello. This article was extremely motivating, particularly because I was looking for thoughts on this subject last Thursday. Dorry Tam Dorise

    1. Hello Dorry,
      So grateful my website has provided
      you with insight for which you were
      searching. While I can take credit
      for the website that God has provided,
      I cannot take credit for Psalm 51 as
      it was penned by King David.
      Again thank you for visiting and
      here’s hoping you will find yourself
      returning.
      Christmas Blessings!

      the words found in Psalm 51 belong to

      I can share my thoughts and insights, but
      more importantly His Word.
