*Genuine Worship*

\\ *Psalm 51** (NIV)*
{For the director of music.
A psalm of David.
When the prophet Nathan came to him after David had committed adultery with Bathsheba.}
*1*Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your unfailing love;
according to your great compassion
blot out my transgressions.
*2*Wash away all my iniquity
and cleanse me from my sin.
*3*For I know my transgressions,
and my sin is always before me.
*4*Against you, you only, have I sinned
and done what is evil in your sight,
so that you are proved right when you speak
and justified when you judge.
*5*Surely I was sinful at birth,
sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
*6*Surely you desire truth in the inner parts;
you teach me wisdom
in the inmost place.
*7*Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean;
wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
*8*Let me hear joy and gladness;
let the bones you have crushed rejoice.
*9*Hide your face from my sins
and blot out all my iniquity.
*10*Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
*11*Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.
*12*Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
*13*Then I will teach transgressors your ways,
and sinners will turn back to you.
*14*Save me from bloodguilt, O God,
the God who saves me,
and my tongue will sing of your righteousness.
*15*O Lord, open my lips,
and my mouth will declare your praise.
*16*You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it;
you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
*17*The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart,
O God, you will not despise.
*18*In your good pleasure make Zion prosper;
build up the walls of Jerusalem.
*19*Then there will be righteous sacrifices,
whole burnt offerings to delight you;
then bulls will be offered on your altar.
