Act Of Contrition
 
  (Version 1)

My God,
I am sorry for my sins with all my heart.
In choosing to do wrong
And failing to do good,
I have sinned against you
Whom I should love above all things.

I firmly intend, with your help,
To do penance, to sin no more,
And to avoid whatever leads me to sin.
Our Savior Jesus Christ
Suffered and died for us.
In his name, my God, have mercy. Amen.

 

(Version 2)

O my God,
I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee,
And I detest all my sins
Because of Thy just punishments,
But most of all because they offend Thee,
My God, Who art all-good
And deserving of all my love.

I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace,
To sin no more and to avoid the near
occasions of sin.

(Version 3)

O my God,
I am sorry for my sins
Because I have offended you.
I know I should love you above all things.
Help me to do penance, to do better,
And to avoid anything that might lead me to sin. Amen.
