CONFESSING OUR SINS (18)
From Psalm 143
Lord, we have failed you - darkness overtakes us, our spirits tremble and our hearts are dismayed: Hear our prayer:
listen to our cry for mercy.
Your face is hidden from us and we wait for your word of love. Hear our prayer:
listen to our cry for mercy.
In your faithfulness and righteousness come to our relief. Hear our prayer:
listen to our cry for mercy.
Do not bring us to judgement - for no one living is righteous before you:
Lord, show us the way we should go,
teach us to do your will
and let your Spirit lead us;
through Jesus Christ our saviour. Amen.
