Let my contrite heart rejoice and in gladness hear your voice. 3 Gracious God, my heart renew, make my spirit right and true. Do not cast me from your sight nor remove your Spirit's light. Your salvation's joy restore, make me steadfast evermore. 4 Contrite spirit, pleading cries, you, O God, will not despise. Sinful ways I will reprove, and my tongue shall sing your love. Let my righteous sacrifice then delight your holy eyes. Scripture: Psalm 51 Used With Tune: REDHEAD 76 Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.

Out of the depths I cry to Thee

Author: Martin Luther Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Confession of Sin Lyrics: 1 Our of the depths I cry to Thee, Lord God, O hear my wailing! Thy gracious ear incline to me, And make my prayer availing! On my misdeeds in mercy look, O deign to blot them from Thy book, Or who can stand before Thee? 2 Thou canst be merciful while just,-- This is my hope's foundation; On Thy redeeming grace I trust,-- Grant me, then, Thy salvation. Shielded by Thee, I stand secure; Thy word is firm, Thy promise sure, And I rely upon Thee. 3 Like those who watch for midnight's hour To hail the dawning morrow, I wait for Thee, I trust Thy power, Unmoved by doubt or sorrow. So thus let Israel hope in Thee, And he shall find Thy mercy free, And Thy redemption plenteous. 4 Where'er the greatest sins abound, By grace they are exceeded; Thy helping hand is always found With aid, where aid is needed: Thy hand, the only hand to save, Will rescue Israel from the grace, And pardon his transgression. Amen. Used With Tune: LUTHER'S HYMN
