"WORDS OF  THE SEASON OF LENT"

"Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions."

" Wash away all my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin."

" O Lord throughout these forty days, you prayed and kept the fast; Inspire repentance for our sin, and free us from our past."

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

" What wonderous love is this, O my soul, O my soul? "

" Create in me a pure heart O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me; Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me..."
