One of the voice-challenging and soul-alleviating songs is the main contest piece of the Intercollegiate Songfest -- Prayer of St. Francis. Not only that it's a good song; it's also a good prayer of peace.
Prayer of St. Francis
Oh…
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace:
Where there is hatred, let me sow love
Where there is injury, Thy pardon Lord
Where there is doubt, let there be faith.
Oh…
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace:
Where there’s despair, let me bring hope
Where there is darkness, let there be light
Where there is sadness, let there be joy!
O, divine Master, grant that I may not seek
To be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand,
To be loved as to love.
Ah…
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace:
Where there’s despair, let me bring hope
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
For it is in giving that we receive
And it is in pardoning that we are pardoned
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Ooh…
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace.
Amen.
