St. Theresa Of Avila

 

Let us all pray
especially that all people
shall be brothers and sisters
in the world
and will understand this prayer.
We can each think about it
separately and examine our conscience.
And each of us
before we pass the prayer on to somebody else,
let us put this prayer into life:

Lead me from death to life,
from falsehood to truth;
Lead me from despair to hope,
from fear to trust;
Lead me from hate to love,
from war to peace;
Let peace fill our heart,
our world,
our universe.
