1. Have mercy upon me, O God. He
appeals at once to the mercy of God, even before he mentions his sin. The sight
of mercy is good for eyes that are sore with penitential weeping. Pardon of sin
must ever be an act of pure mercy. According to thy lovingkindness. Show
mercy congruous with grace. What a choice word is that rare compound of
precious things, “lovingkindness.” According unto the multitude of thy tender mercies. Reveal all
the gentlest attributes in my case. Vast is thy grace; let me be an object of
thine infinite mercy. Blot out my transgressions. Erase the lines.
Obliterate the record, though now it seems engraven in the rock forever. Thou
hast a multitude of mercies, and therefore, I beseech thee, erase my sins.
