1 Kings 8:38, 39: O God, take all my sins away

O God, take all my sins away!
Instructed by Thyself I pray,
Spread forth my hands and heart;
Its secret plague too well I know:
Mercy on Thy poor servant show,
And bid my sins depart.

I turn to the true House of God,
The Temple for three days destroy'd,
And then raised up to heaven:
Father, regard that glorious Shrine
Fill'd with the plenitude Divine,
And speak my sins forgiven.
