But you, Lord, have mercy on us, miserable offenders. God, spare those who confess their faults. Restore those who are repentant, according to your promises declared to us in Christ Jesus our Lord. Grant, merciful Father, for his sake, we may from now on live a godly, righteous, and humble life, to the glory of your holy name. Amen.
