Prayer for Ash Wednesday
The Ash Wednesday collect, said every day of Lent in the Book of Common Prayer and closely matched in the Roman Missal.
Almighty and everlasting God,
who hatest nothing that thou hast made,
and dost forgive the sins of all those who are penitent:
create and make in us new and contrite hearts,
that we, worthily lamenting our sins
and acknowledging our wretchedness,
may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy,
perfect remission and forgiveness;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Book of Common Prayer, Ash Wednesday
