Confession on Cross

Lord Jesus Christ, we confess we have failed you as did your first disciples. We ask for your mercy and your help.


Our selfishness betrays you:
Lord, forgive us.
(All) Christ have mercy.

We fail to share the pain of your suffering:
Lord, forgive us.
(All) Christ have mercy.

We run away from those who abuse you:
Lord, forgive us.
(All) Christ have mercy.

We are afraid of being known to belong to you:
Lord, forgive us.
(All) Christ have mercy.
