Sometimes we all need help confessing our sin to the Lord. Maybe these words would be helpful.
Almighty God, we acknowledge and confess
that we have sinned against you in thought,
word, and deed; we have not loved you with all
of our heart, soul, mind, and strength; we have
not loved our neighbor as ourselves. Deepen
within us our sorrow for the wrong we have
done, and the good we have left undone. Lord,
you are full of compassion and gracious, slow to
anger, and plenteous in mercy; there is always
forgiveness with you! Restore to us the joy of
your salvation; bind up that which is broken,
give light to our minds, strength to our wills,
and rest to our souls. Speak to each of us, and
let your word abide with us until it has wrought
in us your holy will. Amen.
