Exactly. There has been quite a bit of criticism on here in the past over "praying the sinner's prayer", but it is actually quite effective if the people are sincere. After all, repentance just means a change of mind and change of direction. It doesn't necessarily mean a lot of emotion, although sometimes that accompanies it.
