God, make me merciful, for I need mercy.
God, cleanse me from blame that I might see Your holiness.
Purify me that I might melt away in the glory of Your purity.
May I ever be humble that I might know I need You.
Light my way. Enlighten my darkness.
Give me strength to run, to leap and to long …
For Your perfection.
You are my shield.
I take refuge in You.
" With the merciful you show yourself merciful;
with the blameless man you show yourself blameless;
with the purified you show yourself pure;
and with the crooked you make yourself seem tortuous.
For you save a humble people,
but the haughty eyes you bring down.
For it is you who light my lamp;
the LORD my God lightens my darkness.
For by you I can run against a troop,
and by my God I can leap over a wall.
This God—his way is perfect;
the word of the LORD proves true;
he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him."
(Psalm 18:25-30 ESV)
