00:48I confess to Almighty God, to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have waited for sin in my thoughts and in my words,

00:59in what I have done and in what I have prayed to do, through my heart, through my heart, through my most meanest heart.

01:19May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us to everlasting life.
