Prayer For Peace (Mother Teresa and The Sisters of Charity)

Lord, make me a channel of your peace,

That where there is hatred,
I may bring love:
Where there is wrong,
I may bring the spirit of forgiveness:
Where there is discord,
I may bring harmony:
Where there is error,
I may bring truth:
Where there is doubt,
I may bring faith:
Where there is despair,
I may bring hope:
Where there are shadows,
I may bring light:
Where there is sadness,
I may bring joy.

Lord, grant I may seek rather
To comfort than to be comforted;
To understand than to be understood;
To love than to be loved;
For it is by forgetting self;
That one finds,
It is forgiving
That one is forgiven,
It is by dying
That one awakens to eternal life.

Amen.
