Richard Farrant - Lord, for thy tender mercy's sake - текст песни (слова)

Lord, for thy tender mercy's sake,
 lay not our sins to our charge,
 but forgive that is past,
 and give us grace to amend our sinful lives.
 To decline from sin and incline to virtue,
 that we may walk in a perfect heart [or: in an upright heart] before thee,
 now and evermore.
 Amen.
