Thumbs up Sarah Fans..do yourselves a favour

If you havent already got yourself Sarah McLachlans 'Prayer of St. Francis' do yourself a favour and check it out.....
The prayer is the 'Peace' prayer attributed to St Francis of Assisi..but the words hold much relevance whatever your belief or path.
Its to be expected that Ms McLachlans divine vocals serve to turn these beautiful words into a song thats a real 'keeper'
For me its definitely up there right alongside the heavenly "Angel"



Prayer of St Francis

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;
and 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
