O faithful God, thanks be to Thee
Who dost forgive iniquity.
Thou grantest help in sin’s distress,
And soul and body dost Thou bless.

Thy Servant now declares to me;
Thy sins are all forgiven thee.
Depart in peace, but sin no more,
And e’er My pardoning grace adore.

O Lord, we bless Thy gracious heart,
For Thou Thyself dost heal our smart
Thro’ Christ our Savior’s precious blood,
Which for the sake of sinners flowed.

Give us Thy Spirit, peace afford
Now and forever, gracious Lord.
Preserve to us till life is spent
Thy holy Word and sacrament.
