make me a channel of your peace
where there is hatred i cannot possibly bring your
love
where there is injury band aids will not do
where there is doubt faith lives in the shade
and where there is sadness there can be joy

make me a channel of your peace
out of despair grant me hope

oh divine master grant me to know these limits, to understand
that i can't give what someone doesn't want
to know that this life is not bending backward
to give all things to handless people
make me a channel of your peace,
over so called injuries and words i had to say
grant forgiveness and cool the violence of my mind
and heal all wounds if not in this life, then in some time
