Confession

            Words by N. Motkov Music N. Motkov

               

     I enter the monastery, light a candle,
     I want to pray for my relatives and friends,
         I go up to the altar and sing the covenants,
                God is the supreme judge, you hear my request,
                I kiss the cross, I pray, I'm low in the belt,
                Before the golden altar, I cross myself three times in the sky
                In the realm of honored icons, I sang the covenants,
                God Almighty Judge hear my request

In silence, among the saints "Our Father," I whisper,
   Sin, cunning, deceit I want to redeem,
     To redeem, heal the heart, your soul,
                God is the supreme judge, you hear my request,
       I read the prayer, the candle burned,
 Suddenly the monk came up, took me by the hand,
I whispered softly to me: "You redeemed the guilt"
 "God heard you, accepted your request"

                Amen! Amen! Amen!


                Our Father who art in heaven!
                Hallowed be Thy name,
                Thy kingdom come,
                Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven,
                Give us this day our daily bread,
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors,
          And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one,
           For yours is the kingdom and power and glory forever, Amen!
