51Generous in love—God, give grace! Huge in mercy—wipe out my bad record.H5329H4210H1732H5416H5030H935H935H1339H2603H430H2617H7230H7356H4229H6588 2Scrub away my guilt, soak out my sins in your laundry.H3526H7235H5771H2891H2403 3I know how bad I've been; my sins are staring me down.H3045H6588H2403H8548 4You'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.H2398H6213H7451H5869H6663H1696H2135H8199 5I've been out of step with you for a long time, in the wrong since before I was born.H2342H5771H2399H517H3179 6What you're after is truth from the inside out. Enter me, then; conceive a new, true life.H2654H571H2910H5640H3045H2451 7Soak me in your laundry and I'll come out clean, scrub me and I'll have a snow-white life.H2398H231H2891H3526H3835H7950 8Tune me in to foot-tapping songs, set these once-broken bones to dancing.H8085H8342H8057H6106H1794H1523 9Don't look too close for blemishes, give me a clean bill of health.H5641H6440H2399H4229H5771 10God, make a fresh start in me, shape a Genesis week from the chaos of my life.H1254H2889H3820H430H2318H3559H7307H7130 11Don't throw me out with the trash, or fail to breathe holiness in me.H7993H6440H3947H6944H7307 12Bring me back from gray exile, put a fresh wind in my sails!H7725H8342H3468H5564H5081H7307 13Give me a job teaching rebels your ways so the lost can find their way home.H3925H6586H1870H2400H7725 14Commute my death sentence, God, my salvation God, and I'll sing anthems to your life-giving ways.H5337H1818H430H430H8668H3956H7442H6666 15Unbutton my lips, dear God; I'll let loose with your praise.H136H6605H8193H6310H5046H8416 16Going through the motions doesn't please you, a flawless performance is nothing to you.H2654H2077H5414H7521H5930 17I learned God-worship when my pride was shattered. Heart-shattered lives ready for love don't for a moment escape God's notice.H2077H430H7665H7307H7665H1794H3820H430H959 18Make Zion the place you delight in, repair Jerusalem's broken-down walls.H3190H7522H6726H1129H2346H3389 19Then 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
