Father, I have sinner against you
and am not worthy to be called your son (daughter).
Be merciful to me, a sinner.
Father of mercy, like the prodigal son
I return to you and say:
“I have sinned against you
and am no longer worthy to be called your son.”
Christ Jesus, savior of the world,
I pray with the repentant thief
to whom you promised paradise:
“Lord, remember me in your kingdom.”
Holy Spirit, fountain of love,
I call on you with trust:
“Purify my heart,
and help me to walk as a child of the light.”
