Isaiah 64:7

Prayer For Mercy

⁶ All of us have become like something unclean,
and all our righteous acts are like a polluted garment;
all of us wither like a leaf,
and our iniquities carry us away like the wind.
⁷ No one calls on Your name,
striving to take hold of You.
For You have hidden Your face from us
and made us melt because of our iniquity. ⁸ Yet Lord, You are our Father;
we are the clay, and You are our potter;
we all are the work of Your hands.
