Lord, Make Me an Instrument of Thy Peace (Music Video of the Week)
Music Video of the Week, 9 Sep 2024
Mary McDonald | maestroz25 - TRANSCEND Media Service
Northern Lights Chorale and Conductor David Phelps perform Mary McDonald’s setting of the Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi: “Lord, Make Me an Instrument of thy peace.”
LYRICS:
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen.
