When Known Caught In a Trap

Have mercy upon me O God sorry!
                       according to thy lovingkindness according
unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin
For I acknowledge my transgression and my sin is ever before me
But my Lord against thee and thee only have I sinned 
correct? and done this evil in your sight right that thy mightest be justified 
when thou speaketh and be clear when you judgest me right?Well
I will make my statement clear this is my testimony Behold!
I was shapen in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceive me
Behold thou desirest truth in the inward parts and in the hidden part of me 
thou shall make me to know  wisdom make me to know joy and gladness
So I can create and you can create in me a clean heart O God and renew a right 
                                   spirit within me 
                                          Please!
My Nightlife Prayer before leaving my house every time
From ten years old to today a shared emotion
                          Created in the Truth.
