Confession of Sin
Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean
heart, O God, and renew a right[a] spirit within me. Cast me not away from your
presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your
salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit. Then I will teach transgressors your
ways, and sinners will return to you. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, O
God of my salvation, and my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness. O Lord,
open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise. For you will not delight in
sacrifice, or I would give it; you will not be pleased with a burnt offering. The
sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you
will not despise. Amen.
