make me a channel of your peace
where there is hatred
let me bring your love
where there is injury,
your pardon, lord
and where theres doubt,
true faith in you.
make me a channel of your peace
where theres despair in life,
let me bring hope
where there is darkness, only light
and where theres sadness, ever joy
oh master, grant that i may never seek
so much to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to understand
to be loved as to love with all my soul
make me a channel of your peace
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned
in giving of ourselves that we receive
and in dying that we are born
to eternal life
