Have Mercy upon Me, O God
O God, Be Merciful to Me
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 51 Lyrics: O God, be merciful to me
Because your love is strong;
Now wash me from iniquity
And cleanse me from all wrong.
These words are old, but still they live
Within our hearts today.
We cry to you: “O God, forgive!”
And “Wash our sins away!”
My sin has kept me far from you;
Your wrath is justified.
Why is it, Lord? The things I do
Have crushed my bones inside!
I try to make it on my own
As if I’m all I need,
Until I find I’m all alone,
Wrapped up in pride and greed.
Yet this is not the final word,
For you forgive our sin!
When we return to you, O Lord,
You give us joy again.

O God, Be Merciful to Me
Miserere mei
Author: W. W. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 51 First Line: O Lord consider my distress Lyrics: 1 O Lord, consider my distresse,
and now with speed some pitie take:
My sins deface, my faults redresse,
good Lord, for thy great mercies sake.
2 Wash me, O Lord, and make me cleane,
from this unjust and sinfull act:
And purifie me once againe,
my heinous crime and bloudy fact.
3 Remorse and sorrow do constraine
me to acknowledge my excesse:
My sin alas doth still remaine
before my face without release.
4 For thee alone I have offended,
committing evill in thy sight:
And if I were therefore condemned,
yet were thy judgments just & right,
5 It is too manifest alas,
that first I was conceiv'd in sin:
Yea of my mother so borne was,
and yet vile wretch remaine therein.
6 Also behold Lord, thou dost love
the inward truth of a pure heart:
Therefore thy wisdome from above
thou hast reveal'd me to convert.
7 If thou with hysop purge this blot,
I shall be cleaner than the glasse:
And if thou wash away my spot,
the snow in whiteness I shall passe.
8 Therefore O Lord such joy me send,
that inwardly I may find grace:
And that my strength may now amend,
which thou hast swag'd for my trespasse.
9 Turn back thy face and frowning ire,
for I have felt enough thy hand:
And purge my sins I thee desire,
which do in number passe the sand.
10 Make new my heart within my brest,
and frame it to thy holy will:
Thy constant Spirit in me let rest,
which may these raging enemies kill.
The second Part:
11 Cast me not Lord, out from thy face,
but speedily my torments end:
Take not from me thy Spirit of grace,
which may from dangers me defend.
12 Restore me to those joyes againe,
which I was wont in thee to find:
and let me thy free Spirit retaine,
which unto thee may stir my mind.
13 Thus when I shall thy mercies know,
I shall instruct others therein:
And men that are likewise brought low
by mine example shall flie sin.
14 O God, that of my health art Lord,
forgive me this my bloudy vice:
My heart and tongue shall, then accord
to sing thy mercy and justice.
15 Touch thou my lips, my tongue untie,
O Lord which art the only key:
And then my mouth shall testifie,
thy wondrous works and praise alway.
16 And as for outward sacrifice,
I would have offered many one:
But thou esteem'st them of no price,
and therein pleasure tak'st none.
17 The heavy heart, the mind oppresy,
O Lord, thou never dost reject:
And to speak truth it is the best,
and of all sacrifice th'effect.
18 Lord unto Sion turn thy face,
powre out thy mercies on thy hill:
And on Jerusalem thy grace,
build up the wals and love it still.
19 Thou shalt accept then our offrings
of peace and righteousnesse I say:
Yea calves and many other things,
upon thinr altar will we lay. Used With Tune: [O Lord consider my distress]
Miserere mei
Miserere mei
Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 51 First Line: Have mercy on me Lord after Lyrics: 1 Have mercy on me Lord after,
thy great abounding grace:
After thy mercies multitude.
do thou my sins deface.
2 Yea wash me more from my offence,
and cleanse me from my sin:
For I do know my faults, and still
my sin is in mine eyne.
3 Against thee, thee alone I have
offended in this case:
And evill have I done before
the presence of thy face.
4 That in the things that thou hast done
upright thou maist be tri'd:
And eke in judging that the doome
may passe upon thy side.
5 Behold in wickedness my kind
and shape I did recive.
And lo my sinfull mother eke
in sin did me conceive.
6 But lo truth in the inward parts
is pleasant unto thee:
And secrets of thy wisdome thou
revealed hast to me.
7 With hysop Lord besprinkle me,
I shall be cleansed so:
Yea wash thou me, and so I shall
be whiter than the snow.
8 Of joy and gladnesse make thou me
to heare the pleasant voice:
That so the bruised bones which thou
hast broken may rejoyce.
9 From the beholding of my sins,
Lord turne away thy face:
And all my deeds of wickednesse
do utterly deface.
10 O God create in me a heart
unspotted in thy sight:
And eke within my bowels Lord,
renew a stable spirit.
11 Ne cast me from thy sight, nor take
thy Spirit quite away?
The comfort of thy saving health
give me againe I pray.
12 With thy free Spirit establish me,
and I will teach therefore:
Sinners thy waies, and wicked shall
be turned to thy love.
The second Part:
13 O God that art God of my health,
from bloud deliver me:
That praises of thy righteousnesse
My tongue may sing to thee.
14 My lips, which yet fast closed be,
do thou O Lord unclose:
The praises of thy Majesty
my mouth shall so disclose.
15 I would have offered sacrifice,
if that had pleased thee:
But pleased with burnt offerings
I know thou wilt not be.
16 A troubled spirit is sacrifice
delightfull in God's eyes:
A broken and an humble heart,
God thou wilt not despise.
17 In thy good will deale gently Lord,
to Sion and withall
Grant that of thy Jerusalem
uprear'd may be the wall
18 Burnt offerings, gifts and sacrifice
of justice in that day
Thou shalt accept, and calves they shall
upon thine altar lay.
Miserere mei
