Prayer of St. Francis 

Lord, make me a channel of your peace, 

That where there is hatred, I may bring love; 

That where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiven​ess; 

That where there is discord, I may bring harmony; 

That where there is error, I may bring truth; 

That where there is doubt, I may bring faith; 

That where there are shadows, I may bring light; 

That where there is sadness, I may bring joy; 

Lord, grant that I may seek rather to comfort than to be comforted;  
 

To understand, then to be understood; 

To love, then to be loved. 

For it is by self-forgetting that one finds. 

It is by forgiving that one is forgiven. 

It is by dying that one awakens to Eternal Life.
