Act of Contrition (authorized for Usage in Ireland)

O my God!

I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee;

and I detest my sins above every other evil,

because they displease Thee, my God,

Who for Thine infinite goodness

art so deserving of all my love;

and I firmly resolve,

by Thy holy grace,

never more to offend Thee,

and to amend my life.

Amen.
