Absterge Domine
 (Sung text for setting by T. Tallis)
 Matches base text
Language: Latin 
Our translations:  ENG
Absterge Domine delicta mea, 
quae inscienter iuvenis feci, 
et ignosce poenitenti, 
nam tu es Deus meus, 
tibi soli fidit anima mea. 
Tu es salus mea. 
Dolorem meum testantur lachrimae meae. 
Sis memor Domine bonae voluntatis tuae. 
Nunc exaudi preces meas 
et serviet per aevum tibi spiritus meus. 
Amen.

Composition:

    Set to music by Thomas Tallis (c1505 - 1585), "Absterge Domine", published 1575, from Cantiones Sacrae, no. 2
