[O God, take all my sins away!]

What prayer soever be made by any man, &c. —viii. 38, 39.

O God, take all my sins away!
Instructed by Thyself I pray,
Spread forth my hands and heart;
Its secret plague too well I know:
Mercy on Thy poor servant show,
And bid my sins depart.
I turn to the true House of God,
The Temple for three days destroy'd,
And then raised up to heaven:
Father, regard that glorious Shrine
Fill'd with the plenitude Divine,
And speak my sins forgiven.
