Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi
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; and
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 giving that we receive;
It is pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to Eternal life.
