1 of 5 Make Me An Instrument of Your Peace

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,
not so much to be understood as to understand,
not so much to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
it is in dying that we awake to eternal life.

—St. Francis of Assisi

2 of 5 Prayer for Inner Peace

Deep peace of the running waves to you, 
Deep peace of the flowing air to you, 
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you, 
Deep peace of the shining stars to you, 
Deep peace of the shades of night to you. 
Moon and stars always giving light to you.

—Ancient Celtic Prayer

Fortify me with the grace of Your Holy Spirit 
and give Your peace to my soul that I may be 
free from all needless anxiety, solicitude 
and worry. Help me to desire always that 
which is pleasing and acceptable to You 
so that Your will may be my will.

4 of 5 Grant Us Your Peace

O Lord, my God,
grant us your peace; already, indeed, you have made us rich in all things!
Give us that peace of being at rest,
that sabbath peace,
the peace which knows no end.

—St. Augustine

5 of 5 The Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
that I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
forever in the next.
Amen.

—Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)
