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 silence let me sing praise
Where there's despair let me bring hope
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, of peace, of peace
