PRAYER OF PEACE Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace; Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; Where there is sadness, joy.
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; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Saint Francis of Assisi (1181-1226),
