Merciful God, Who according to Your unfailing love and compassion forgives our transgressions. We pray that You give us contrite heart to repent our sins of resisting and rebelling against Your will. So that we would rejoice in gladness, always living in eagerness to do good and readiness to do justice, realizing that the Kingdom is at hand .Through Jesus Christ our Lord who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit one God now and ever. Amen
