Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Lord make us instruments

of your peace.

Where there is hatred

let us sow love;

Where there is injury, pardon;

Where there is discord, union;

Where there is doubt, faith;

Where there is despair, hope;

Where there is darkenss, light;

Where there is saddness, 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 recieve;

It is in pardoning

that we are pardoned;

And it is in dying that we are

born to eternal life.

Amen
