Make Me A Channel Of Your Peace
Sinead O'Connor · Other Songs - Sinead O'Connor
Where there is hatred let me bring love
Where there is injury, your pardon Lord
And where there is doubt, true faith in You
Make me a channel of your peace
Where there's despair in life let me bring hope
Where there is darkness, only light
And where thereÂ’s sadness ever joy
Oh, Master grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
to be loved as to love with all my soul
Make me a channel of your peace
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned
It is in giving to all man that we receive
And in dying that we're born to eternal life
