Psalm 51:1-2

Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love;

according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions.

Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.

Prayer

Lord, may I hear your voice, guide me in your ways. Show me in a way that I will recognise you. Forgive my mistakes and renew my spirit, O Lord. Amen.
