Psalm 57

Without you, my God,
I am steeped in sin.
You are Yahweh M'Kaddesh,
The Lord Who Makes Holy.

I long to be clean,
to think pure thoughts,
to act with unstained motives.

Sin longs to have me;
it creeps at my door,
begging for entry.

O stand by my side, my God!
Defeat the sin within me.
Make me holy as you are holy.
I want to be sanctified.

Holy Spirit, fill me completely.
Discard the dregs of my life;
skim off the dross so my gold shines.

Yahweh M'Kaddesh,
make me like you,
a reflection of true holiness.
