Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Oh, Lord, make me an instrument of Your Peace 

Where there is hatred, may I bring Love

Where there is offense, may I bring Forgiveness

Where there is discord, may I bring Union

Where there is doubt, let me bring Faith

Where there is error, let me bring Truth

Where there is despair, let me bring Joy

Where there is darkness, let me bring Light.

O Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be comforted, but to comfort;

to be understood, but to understand;

to be loved, as to love.

For it is by giving that one receives;

Forgiving, that one is forgiven;

Dying, that one is raised to Eternal Life. Amen.
