The Prayer

Today I will be an instrument of peace
Where there is hatred, let me sow love
Where there is injury, let me sow pardon
Where there is doubt, let me bring faith

Today I will be an instrument of peace
Where there's despair, let me find hope
Where there is darkness, let me give light
Where there is sadness, let me be joyful

And let it be
That I console before I ask consolation
And let it be
I understand rather than seek understanding

For it is by giving that we receive
And it is by pardoning that we are pardoned
And it is in dying that we are born
Yes, it is in dying that we are born
To eternal light
