Pray of St. Francis
Lord Make me an instrument of thy 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 Devine 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

Psalm 117
O Praise the Lord all ye nations, praise him all ye people:
For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of
the Lord endureth forever.
Praise ye the Lord.

Psalm 121
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills.
From whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from the Lord,
Which made heaven and earth.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved:
He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, he that keepeth Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
The Lord is thy keeper:
The Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day,
Nor the moon by night.
The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil:
He shall preserve thy soul.
The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in
From this time forth, and even for evermore.
