Psalm 51

51Generous in love—God, give grace! Huge in mercy—wipe out my bad record.H5329H4210H1732H5416H5030H935H935H1339H2603H430H2617H7230H7356H4229H65882Scrub away my guilt, soak out my sins in your laundry.H3526H7235H5771H2891H24033I know how bad I've been; my sins are staring me down.H3045H6588H2403H85484You're the One I've violated, and you've seen it all, seen the full extent of my evil. You have all the facts before you; whatever you decide about me is fair.H2398H6213H7451H5869H6663H1696H2135H81995I've been out of step with you for a long time, in the wrong since before I was born.H2342H5771H2399H517H31796What you're after is truth from the inside out. Enter me, then; conceive a new, true life.H2654H571H2910H5640H3045H24517Soak me in your laundry and I'll come out clean, scrub me and I'll have a snow-white life.H2398H231H2891H3526H3835H79508Tune me in to foot-tapping songs, set these once-broken bones to dancing.H8085H8342H8057H6106H1794H15239Don't look too close for blemishes, give me a clean bill of health.H5641H6440H2399H4229H577110God, make a fresh start in me, shape a Genesis week from the chaos of my life.H1254H2889H3820H430H2318H3559H7307H713011Don't throw me out with the trash, or fail to breathe holiness in me.H7993H6440H3947H6944H730712Bring me back from gray exile, put a fresh wind in my sails!H7725H8342H3468H5564H5081H730713Give me a job teaching rebels your ways so the lost can find their way home.H3925H6586H1870H2400H772514Commute my death sentence, God, my salvation God, and I'll sing anthems to your life-giving ways.H5337H1818H430H430H8668H3956H7442H666615Unbutton my lips, dear God; I'll let loose with your praise.H136H6605H8193H6310H5046H841616Going through the motions doesn't please you, a flawless performance is nothing to you.H2654H2077H5414H7521H593017I learned God-worship when my pride was shattered. Heart-shattered lives ready for love don't for a moment escape God's notice.H2077H430H7665H7307H7665H1794H3820H430H95918Make Zion the place you delight in, repair Jerusalem's broken-down walls.H3190H7522H6726H1129H2346H338919Then you'll get real worship from us, acts of worship small and large, Including all the bulls they can heave onto your altar! A David psalm, when Doeg the Edomite reported to Saul,"David's at Ahimelech's house."H2654H2077H6664H5930H3632H5930H5927H6499H4196

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
