Prayer Of St. 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.
And there is where 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's in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Amen
