Prayer of Confession
(inspired by 2 Corinthians 9:6-11)

When we have sown sparingly;
Lord, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy.

When we have given reluctantly;
so often we make excuses.
Christ, have mercy.
Christ, have mercy.

That we may know the joy of cheerful giving;
Lord, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy.

May Almighty God have mercy on us,
forgive us our sins,
and keep us in eternal life. Amen.
