Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, may we pardon;
Where there is doubt, may we have faith.
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is deep despair, give us hope;
where there is darkness, bring Your light;
where there is sadness, let us feel Your joy.
Oh, Divine master,
Grant that I may not seek to be consoled, as to console
Not so much to be understood as to understand
Not so much to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive
In pardoning that we're released.
It is in dying that we awaken to
Eternal life.
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
