The Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an intrument of Your peace,
主阿! 使我作你和平之子,
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
在憎恨之處,播下仁愛;
where there is injury,pardon;
在傷痕之處,播下寬恕;
where there is doubt,faith;
在懷疑之處,播下信心;
where there is despair, hope;
在絕望之處,播下盼望;
where there is darkness, light;
在幽暗之處,播下光明;
and where there is sadness, joy.
在憂愁之處,播下喜樂.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so seek
主阿!使我少為自己求,
to be consoled, as to console;
少求受安慰,但求安慰人;
to be understood, as to understand;
少求被了解,但求了解人;
to be loved, as to love;
少求愛,但求全心付出愛.
for it is in giving that we receive,
因為在捨去時,我們便有所得
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
在赦免時,我們便蒙赦免;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
在死亡時,我們便進入永恆.
