English text
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
Where there is hatred, let me bring love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is discord, union.
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
Where there is despair, let me bring hope.
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy
For thy mercy and for thy truth’s sake
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace.
