Lord, make me an instrument of your peace
Where there is hatred, let me sow love
Where there is injury, pardon
Where there is discord, unity
Where there is doubt, faith
Where there is error, truth
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is sadness, joy.
Where there is darkness, light

O Divine master, grant that,
I may not so much seek
To be consoled, as to console
To be understood, as to understand
To be loved, as to love

For It is in giving, that we receive
It is in pardoning, that we are pardoned
It is in dying, that we are born to eternal life.

St. Francis
