Psalms 51:10-17

10 God, make a fresh start in me, shape a Genesis week from the chaos of my life.

10 Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

11 Don't throw me out with the trash, or fail to breathe holiness in me.

11 Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.

12 Bring me back from gray exile, put a fresh wind in my sails!

12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.

13 Give me a job teaching rebels your ways so the lost can find their way home.

13 Then I will teach transgressors your ways, so that sinners will turn back to you.

14 Commute my death sentence, God, my salvation God, and I'll sing anthems to your life-giving ways.

14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, you who are God my Savior, and my tongue will sing of your righteousness.

15 Unbutton my lips, dear God; I'll let loose with your praise.

15 Open my lips, Lord, and my mouth will declare your praise.

16 Going through the motions doesn't please you, a flawless performance is nothing to you.

16 You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.

17 I learned God-worship when my pride was shattered. Heart-shattered lives ready for love don't for a moment escape God's notice.

17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.
