For Your mercies' sake, O Lord my God, tell me what You are to me. Say to my soul: "I am your salvation." So speak that I may hear, O Lord; my heart is listening; open it that it may hear You, and say to my soul: "I am your salvation." After hearing this word, may I come in haste to take hold of you. Hide not Your face from me. Let me see Your face even if I die, lest I die with longing to see it. The house of my soul is too small to receive You; let it be enlarged by You. It is all in ruins; do You repair it. There are things in it, I confess and I know, that must offend Your sight. But who shall cleanse it?
Or to what others besides You shall I cry out? From my secret sins cleanse me, O Lord, and from those of others spare your servant.

Amen.
