Schaffe in mir, Gott, ein rein Herz,

Tröste mich wieder mit deiner Hilfe,
und der freudige Geist erhalte mich.

A clean heart create for me, O God,
and a steadfast spirit renew within me.
Cast me not out from your presence,
and your Holy Spirit take not from me.
Comfort me again with your help,
and a joyful spirit sustain in me.
