The Act of Contrition Old Version is a sincere promise made to God to renounce sin and try to please Him at all times.
Act of Contrition Old Version
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of hell, but most of all because they offend Thee, my God, Who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of Thy grace to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen.

The Act of Contrition Old Version is the traditional form of the prayer that is said as a way to confess or sins to God and ask him for pardon. The prayer is to be said with a sincere heart. One should try to avoid premeditated sin and then using the prayer as a crutch. This is because sin offends God greatly. When you say the prayer it is also wise to ask the Blessed Mother to assist you with getting rid of the vices that you are asking forgiveness for. Say the Act of Contrition with confidence knowing that your Father in heaven is always willing to hear your prayers.
