Lyrics
1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is
covered.
2 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and
in whose spirit there is no guile.
3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the
day long.
4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is
turned into the drought of summer. Selah.
5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid.
I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou
forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
6 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time
when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they
shall not come nigh unto him.
7 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble;
thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.
8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt
go: I will guide thee with mine eye.
9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no
understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest
they come near unto thee.
10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the
LORD, mercy shall compass him about.
11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for
joy, all ye that are upright in heart.1

That David wrote this
gloriously evangelic Psalm is proved not only by this
heading, but by the words of the apostle Paul, in Romans
4:6-8. "Even as David also describeth the blessedness of
the man unto whom God imputeth righteousness without
works, "&c.2 |

Psalms 32 and 51 |
Probably David's deep
repentance over his great sin was followed by such blissful
peace, that he was led to pour out his spirit in the soft
music of this choice song. In the order of history it seems
to follow the fifty-first. David
promised in the fifty-first Psalm to teach transgressors the
Lord's ways, and here he does it most effectually.2
