Psalm 51: Cleanse Me Oh Lord Blues

** Psalm 51 is one of the most heartfelt and moving psalms written by King David. After his sin with Bathsheba and the subsequent confrontation by the prophet Nathan, David realized the depth of his wrongdoing and cried out to God for forgiveness. This psalm is his plea for mercy, cleansing, and renewal. It's a powerful expression of repentance and David's deep desire to be restored to God's favor.

In Psalm 51, David says:

"Have mercy on me, God, according to your loving kindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin." (Psalm 51:1-2, WEB)

** Psalm 51: Cleanse Me Oh Lord Blues Lyrics:

Verse 1:
I come before You, Lord, with a heavy heart,
"Have mercy on me," is where I start.
According to Your loving kindness, I plea,
“Blot out my transgressions,” Lord, set me free.

Chorus:
Wash me clean from my iniquity,
Cleanse my soul, let Your grace flow over me.
Restore the joy of salvation, deep inside,
Renew a right spirit, Lord, be my guide.

Verse 2:
My sins are ever before me, they weigh me down,
"Against You, You only," I’ve worn this crown.
I’ve done what’s evil, I’m aware of my plight,
"Be proved right when You speak," Lord, set things right.

Chorus:
Wash me clean from my iniquity,
Cleanse my soul, let Your grace flow over me.
Restore the joy of salvation, deep inside,
Renew a right spirit, Lord, be my guide.

Bridge:
"Create in me a clean heart," I cry out loud,
"Renew a steadfast spirit," in Your love I’m found.
Do not cast me away, from Your presence, Lord,
"Don’t take Your Holy Spirit," from me, I implore.

Verse 3:
Let me teach sinners, Lord, of Your ways,
That they may return to You, and sing Your praise.
A broken spirit, a contrite heart I bring,
In Your boundless mercy, my soul takes wing.

Chorus:
Wash me clean from my iniquity,
Cleanse my soul, let Your grace flow over me.
Restore the joy of salvation, deep inside,
Renew a right spirit, Lord, be my guide.

Outro:
"Have mercy on me," that’s the song I sing,
In Your forgiveness, Lord, my heart will cling.
With every breath, Your grace I’ll proclaim,
“Cleanse me, Lord,” and praise Your holy name.
