Prayers for Repentance
God, my good and loving Lord, I acknowledge all the sins
which I have committed every day in my life, whether in
thought, word or deed. I ask for forgiveness from the depths
of my heart for offending You and others and repent of my
old ways. Help me by Your grace to change, to sin no more
and to walk in the way of righteousness and to praise and
glorify Your Name, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Amen.
O Lord my God, I confess that I have sinned against You
in thought, word and deed. I have also omitted to do what
Your holy law requires of me. But now with repentance and
contrition I turn again to Your love and mercy. I entreat
You to forgive me all my transgressions and to cleanse me
from all my sins. Lord, fill my heart with the light of
Your truth. Strengthen my will by Your grace. Teach me
both to desire and to do only what pleases You.
Amen.
