Act of Contrition (Traditional)

O my God,

I am heartily sorry for having offended thee

and I detest all my sins,

because of thy just punishment.

But most of all,

because they have offended thee, my God,

who art all good and deserving of all my love.

I firmly resolve, with the help of thy grace, to

sin no more and to avoid the near occasion of sin. Amen
