To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet went to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy on me, O God, according to your steadfast love; according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin!

Thank You, LORD, God Almighty, for Your mercy endures forever. Your plan, in place forever and ever, was to cleanse me and bring me to Yourself through the sacrifice of Your Son, Your only Son; to pay the penalty brought on by my sin so that I can appear before You, brought into Your holy presence as one totally acceptable to You. Praise You, LORD GOD Almighty.
