Corporate Confession of Sin: Adapted from The Valley of Vision

Eternal Father, you are good beyond all thought, but we are wretched and blind. Our lips are ready to confess, but our hearts are slow to feel, and our ways reluctant to amend. We bring ourselves to you and ask you to wound us, bend us, mold us. Grant us to know that the way of transgressors is hard, that evil paths are wretched paths, and to depart from you is to lose all good. Work in us a more profound and abiding repentance. Grant that through the tears of repentance we may see more clearly the brightness and glories of the saving cross. As we quiet ourselves to confess sin, hear our prayers, for we come in the name of our Mediator, Jesus Christ, to seek forgiveness.
