Miserere Nobis, Domine

Miserere nobis, Domine.
Have mercy on us, Lord.
Have mercy on me, God,
in your love,
O wash me more and more from
my guilt;
my offences truly I know them,
against you, you alone have
I sinned.
Indeed you love truth in the
heart,
then in the secret of my heart
teach me wisdom.
A pure heart create for me,
O God,
put a steadfast Spirit within me.
