Collect
Almighty and everlasting God,
you hate nothing that you have made
and forgive the sins of all those who are penitent:
create and make in us new and contrite hearts
that we, worthily lamenting our sins
and acknowledging our wretchedness,
may receive from you, the God of all mercy,
perfect remission and forgiveness;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Post Communion
Almighty God,
you have given your only Son to be for us
both a sacrifice for sin
and also an example of godly life:
give us grace
that we may always most thankfully receive
these his inestimable gifts,
and also daily endeavour
to follow the blessed steps of his most holy life;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Psalm 51 1-18
1 Have mercy on me, O God, in your great goodness; ¨
according to the abundance of your compassion
blot out my offences.
2 Wash me thoroughly from my wickedness ¨
and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my faults ¨
and my sin is ever before me.
4 Against you only have I sinned ¨
and done what is evil in your sight,
5 So that you are justified in your sentence ¨
and righteous in your judgement.
6 I have been wicked even from my birth, ¨
a sinner when my mother conceived me.
7 Behold, you desire truth deep within me ¨
and shall make me understand wisdom
in the depths of my heart.
8 Purge me with hyssop and I shall be clean; ¨
wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
9 Make me hear of joy and gladness, ¨
that the bones you have broken may rejoice.
10 Turn your face from my sins ¨
and blot out all my misdeeds.
11 Make me a clean heart, O God, ¨
and renew a right spirit within me.
12 Cast me not away from your presence ¨
and take not your holy spirit from me.
13 Give me again the joy of your salvation ¨
and sustain me with your gracious spirit;
14 Then shall I teach your ways to the wicked ¨
and sinners shall return to you.
15 Deliver me from my guilt, O God,
the God of my salvation, ¨
and my tongue shall sing of your righteousness.
16 O Lord, open my lips ¨
and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.
17 For you desire no sacrifice, else I would give it; ¨
you take no delight in burnt offerings.
18 The sacrifice of God is a broken spirit; ¨
a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. |
