Merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone.

In your mercy forgive what we have been, help us amend what we are, and direct what we shall be, so that we may delight in your will and walk in your ways, to the glory of your holy name. Through Christ, our Lord. Amen
