PRAYER AT THE FOOT OF THE ALTAR.
​Commencement Mass June 4th, 1972
Fr. Kreucher: Let us confess our sins to each other and to God, our merciful Father.
Class: Lord, we have remained cool to the fire of your word; we have not dared to live for others.
LORD HAVE MERCY
Lord we have failed as peacemakers; we have continued to live by violence, in our homes, our cities, and our country.
LORD HAVE MERCY
Lord, we have refused your freedom; we have remained trapped within our narrow prejudices, in the closed circles of the safe and comfortable.
LORD HAVE MERCY
Father, we confess and repent these and all the sins by which we have turned away from each other and from you, in our thinking, speaking, and doing. We have done the evil you forbid, and have not done the good to which we are called. Forgive all we have done, and not done, and help us to forgive and love one another.
AMEN
