Ash Wednesday: O Lord, the house of my soul is narrow...

O Lord, the house of my soul is narrow; enlarge it that thou mayest enter in. It is ruinous, O repair it! It displeases thy sight; I confess it, I know. But who shall cleanse it, or to whom shall I cry but thee? Cleanse me from my secret faults, O Lord, and spare thy servant from strange sins. -St. Augustine, Confessions

Send out your light and your truth;

    let them lead me;

let them bring me to your holy hill

    and to your dwelling! -Psalm 43:3
