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, bring faith.
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is despair, give hope;
where there is darkness, shine light;
where there is sadness, give joy.
O Divine, 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;
and it is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
