Take not from me thy spirite and grace which may from daungers me defend
[verse 12]
Restore me to those ioyes agayne, which I was wont in thee to fynde:
And let me thy free spirite retayne, which vnto thee may stirre, my mind
[verse 13]
Thus when I shall thy mercyes know I shall instruct others therin:
And men that are likewise brought low by mine ensample shall flee sinne,
[verse 14]
O God that of my health art Lorde, forgeue me thys my bloudy vice:
My harte and toung shall then accorde, to sing thy mercies and iustice.
[verse 15]
Touch thou my lippes, my tonge vntye, (O Lord) which art the only kay:
And then my mouth shall testifye, thy wondrous works & praise alway.
[verse 16]
And as for outward sacrifice, I would haue offred many one:
But thou estemest them of no pryce, and therin pleasure takst thou none.
[verse 17]
The heauy hart, the mind opprest, O Lorde, thou neuer dost reiect:
And to speake truth it is the best, and of all sacrifice the effect.
[verse 18]
Lorde vnto Sion turne thy face, poure out thy mercyes on thy hyll:
And on Jerusalem thy grace, buyld vp the walles, and loue it still,

[verse 19]
Thou shalt accept then oure offrynges, of peace and righteousnes, I say:
Yea calues and many other thynges, vpon thyne altare will we lay.
