Lord, Make me an instrument of thy peace;
where there is hatred. let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is discord, union;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is dispair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy
Grant that we 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 is in dying that we are
born to eternal life.
Amen.
--St. Francis of Assisi
