-
Most merciful god.
-
-
I confess that I am by nature errant and confused and do stupid things.
-
I have sinned against you in thought,
-
word and deed by what I have done
-
and by what I have left undone
-
I have not loved you with my whole heart
-
I have not blessed you with my words and actions
-
I have not loved my neightbors as myself
-
I justly deserve your present and eternal punishment
-
For the sake of your son Jesus Christ have mercy on me.
-
Forgive me, renew me , and lead me
-
so that I may delight in your will and walk in your ways
-
to the glory of your name
