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
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 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"
