"Forgive me Father for I am sin" or "Forgive me Father for I have sinned"?
I would rather have sinned than be sin.

Yes, I don't know why you would be sin, unless you were doing a play on words.
For "Forgive me father for I am sin", you could simply say mihi ignosce pater nam peccum sum. For the more traditional "Forgive me father for I have sinned" I would say mihi ignosce pater nam peccavi.
There was probably a special phrase in the days when the church was all Latin, but I don't know what it was.
