How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds

“1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
in a believer’s ear!
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds,
and drives away our fear.”

The Act of Penitence

“Have mercy on us, O Lord. / For we have sinned against you.
Show us, O Lord, your mercy. / And grant us your salvation”

“May almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us to everlasting life” (Priest’s concluding
prayer, nos. 4-6).

The Confiteor

“I confess to almighty God
and to you, my brothers and sisters,
that I have greatly sinned
in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done
and in what I have failed to do,
through my fault,
through my fault,
through my most grievous fault;
therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin,
all the Angels and Saints,
and you, my brothers and sisters,
to pray for me to the Lord our God.”

From: Brian W. MacMichael “The New Translation of the Holy Mass: The Confiteor”

Kyrie eleison
“Lord, have mercy. / Lord, have mercy.
Christ, have mercy. / Christ, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy. / Christ, have mercy.”

or
“Kyrie, eleison. / Kyrie, eleison.
Christe, eleison. / Christe, eleison.
Kyrie, eleison. / Kyrie, eleison” (no. 7).

We Practice for Reconciliation

The children will have these cards to use them in their first confession. They will take home them home to keep and use in future confessions.

The Reconciliation cards were designed by Kim N. Buckley.
