1. A clean heart create for me, O God, And a steadfast spirit renew with in me.
Cast me not out from your presence, And your Holy Spirit take not from me.
2. Give me back the joy of your sal vation, And a willing spirit sustain in me.
I will teach transgressors your ways, And sinners shall return to you.
3. For you are not pleased with sac ri fices; Should I offer a holocaust,
you would not ac cept it.
My sacrifice, O God, is a con trite spirit; A heart contrite and humbled,
O God, you will not spurn.

The Response as shown provides a written-out version of the psalm in three tonalities, with each
repetition of the response ascending a half step. According to the Missale Romanum (no. 34), after the
Epistle has been read, all rise, and the priest intones the Alleluia three times, raising his voice a step
each time. All repeat the alleluia each time. If necessary, the psalmist intones the alleluia. Those guitar
players with capos which cannot be quickly moved may use the line of chords underneath the capo
chords. This psalm may also be performed without the key changes by starting at the segno ( % ).
