Act of Contrition


Act of Contrition is normally said during the Sacrament of Confession where we acknowledge our sins, ask God for forgiveness, and express our desire to repent. This can also be said as part of our daily prayer.

O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of Heaven, and the pains of Hell; but most of all because I love Thee, my God, Who art all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life.
Amen.
