Yet no one calls on your name
    or pleads with you for mercy.
Therefore, you have turned away from us
    and turned us over[a] to our sins.

And yet, O Lord, you are our Father.
    We are the clay, and you are the potter.
    We all are formed by your hand.
Don’t be so angry with us, Lord.
    Please don’t remember our sins forever.
Look at us, we pray,
    and see that we are all your people.

No one(A) calls on your name(B)
    or strives to lay hold of you;
for you have hidden(C) your face from us
    and have given us over(D) to[a] our sins.

Yet you, Lord, are our Father.(E)
    We are the clay, you are the potter;(F)
    we are all the work of your hand.(G)
Do not be angry(H) beyond measure, Lord;
    do not remember our sins(I) forever.
Oh, look on us, we pray,
    for we are all your people.(J)
