THE  PRAYER OF
S
AINT FRANCIS OF ASSISI

 

 


 


 

 


Lord, make me an instrument of Thy 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,
and where there is sadness, joy.
Divine Master, grant that I may
not so much seek to he 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.
