Make me to know your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth, and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all day long. Be mindful of your mercy, O Lord, and of your  steadfast love, for They have been from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to your steadfast love  remember me, for your goodness sake, O Lord!’ from Ps. 25.
