Heal Our Wounds

Let us pray [to the Father and ask him to form a new heart within us]
God of all compassion, Father of all goodness, To heal the wounds our sins and selfishness bring upon us, You bid us turn to fasting, prayer, and sharing with our brothers. We acknowledge our sinfulness, our guilt is ever before us: When our weakness causes discouragement, let your compassion fill us With hope and lead us through a Lent of repentance to the beauty of Easter joy. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
