HEAR ME OH LORD!!!

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.

A Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi
