Said in unison:
God of grace, we stand in need of your forgiveness. Desiring to be rich, we fall into temptation. Love of money ensnares us. Enough does not satisfy: the more we acquire, the greater our greed becomes. We become prosperous in our own eyes, and poor in your sight. Rescue us from self-destruction through Christ, the giver of life.
