CREATE IN ME A CLEAN HEART
Psalm 51
Lord, have mercy on me
Shower me with your unfailing love
Let me feel the tender mercies
That a parent has for their child
As a teacher cleans the chalkboard
At the end of a lesson
Clear the slate of my errors
Erase all evidence of my wrongdoings
And shortcomings
Create in me a clean heart
Revive my spirit
Restore my joy
Take me back to a place where
My soul’s main desire
Is to please You
Do not send me away
From Your presence
Or hold back the joy of Your spirit
Bring back the excitement I felt
When I first found You
Mold my spirit into one
Whose priority is
To build relationship
With You
As my spirit is revived
I will reach out to others
Who need
Your love And grace
With my voice
I will sing Your praises
You are not looking for burnt offerings
Or really even monetary sacrifices
As much as You desire
A humble spirit;
One that seeks You,
Praises You
Repents
And is eager to love and serve You.
Only when our spirits are right
Will our monetary gifts
Have value
