Corporate Confession of Sin

Most Holy Lord,

We come to you with sorrow and contrition for the many sins we commit. You are so holy and pure that sin cannot dwell with you. You are a consuming fire, and we all deserved to be consumed because we have not kept your holy law. We have unholy thoughts, unholy words, and we do unholy deeds. Our best works are still so often mixed with impure motives.

But you are also gracious, loving, merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love. Forgive us, we pray. Cleanse us from all our unholiness. Wash us with the blood of Christ that we may be whiter than snow. And help us to press on to walk before you in fear as well as thankfulness. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
