Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on me.

O God, forgive me for all the sins of my life;

the sins of my youth and the sins of my age,

the sins of my body and the sins of my soul,

the sins I have confessed and the sins I have forgotten,

the sins against others in thought, word, and deed, all my sins of omission.

O, my God, I am sorry for all my sins, because You are so good;

And with Your help, I will not sin again.

God be merciful to me, a sinner.

Divine Heart of Jesus, convert sinners, save the dying, deliver the holy souls in purgatory. Amen.
