A Confession of Sins

I, a poor sinner, confess before you, my God and Creator, that I have grievously sinned against you in many ways, not only by gross outward sins, but much more through inward natural blindness, unbelief, doubts, despondency, impatience, pride, covetousness, secret envy, hatred, malice, and other sinful affections which you see in me, my Lord and God, and which, alas, I cannot always see in myself. I repent of these, and cry to you for your mercy, through your beloved Son Jesus Christ. Amen.
