Instrument of peace

Where there is hatred, let me bring love
Where there is doubt, let me bring faith
Where there is falsehood, let me bring truth
Where there is pain, I'll comfort you
Where there is blindness, let me bring sight
Where there is darkness, let me bring light

And with these words I speak
Grant that I may not so seek
To be heard but to hear
To be consoled but to console
Not to be seen but to see
To be loved but to love

For when we give love we will receive
When we forgive love, we'll find reprieve
It is in dying we'll be released
Make me an instrument of peace
