THE GRACE TO FIND TRUE LOVE IN YOU

Give to me a pure heart, Lord, a humbled heart contrite.
Give to me a pure heart, Lord.  In my soul shed Your light.
Have mercy on me, loving Lord; in compassion wipe out my offense.
Wash me, O Lord, from my guilt.  Of sin, let me be now cleansed.

Give to me a clean heart, Lord, a heart that loves with Your love.
Give to me a clean heart, Lord, with grace come down from above.
Put a steadfast spirit within me.  Your spirit in my soul renew.
Cast me not from Your presence, Lord.  All sin may I now eschew.

My sacrifice to You, My God, a spirit quite contrite.
My sacrifice to You, My God, a soul that seeks to do right.
Guide me towards humility, from You may I now learn.
A humbled heart my Lord and God, You embrace, will never spurn.

And give our loved ones too, Lord, a pure and humbled heart.
With clean heart, let them seek Your will.  From Your will let them not depart.
Put a steadfast spirit within each one, a spirit that seeks what is true.
Grant to each one humility, and the grace to find true love in You.
(Based on Psalm 51)
