Once a year I choose the Peace Prayer of St Francis for our weekly Prayer for Peace. Those on the internet may like to click on this link to listen to a rendition of the prayer. I think that I have suggested this same video before as well! https://youtu.be/vs644Vp_mLM?si=24co5GYXrvM2nD1O

PEACE PRAYER OF SAINT FRANCIS

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.
Amen.
