52 Prayers - Every Catholic Should Know

Prayer of St. Francis

Promotes peace and compassion. Emulates the humility and service of Christ and Francis. Seeks personal transformation. Lives with purpose rooted in love and generosity.

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;
and 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.
