Corporate Confession of Sin

Most Gracious Heavenly Father,

We are on holy ground and are not worthy to stand before you. You are too pure to be in the presence of sin. Sinners like us should shudder in fear. We have all committed open violations of your Law; we have omitted many good duties; we have been thoughtless with the means of grace; we have often thought of you being made in our image. We have all sinned and fall short of your glory.

Please forgive us, O Lord. We look to Christ our advocate once again, and we claim him as the propitiation for sins. We humbly ask for more of your Spirit, that we might be renewed in true righteousness and holiness. May our repentance correspond with the blessings we receive in Christ, in whose name we pray, amen.
