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 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.
