A Prayer of Peace by Saint Francis

Lord, make me an instrument of your 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.

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 Prayers.
