Merciful Father of our Saviour Jesus Christ, because I have sinned and done wickedly; yet, through thy goodness, have received a desire of repentance, whereto, this thy long sufferance doth draw my hard heart: I beseech thee, for thy mercies sake in Christ, to work the same repentance in me; and by thy Spirit, Power, and Grace, so to humble, mortify, and fear my conscience for my sins to salvation, that in thy good time thou mayest comfort and quicken me again, thorough Jesus Christ thy dearly beloved Sonne. AMEN.
