1. To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul In you, O My God, I place all my trust.

2. Look down on me, have mercy O Lord; Forgive me my sins, behold all my grief.

3. My heart and soul shall yearn for your face; be gracious to me and answer my plea.

4. Do not withhold your goodness from me, O Lord, may your love be deep in my soul.

5. To you I pray have pity on me My God I have sinned against your great love.

6. Mercy I cry, O Lord, wash me clean; And white than snow my Spirit shall be.

7. Give me again the joy of your help: Now open my lips your praise I will sing.

8. Happy is he forgiven by God His sins blotted out, his guilt is no more.

9. You are my joy, my refuge and strength: Let all upright heart give praise to the Lord.
