Offertory Text for July 6
Offertory Eternal Life Olive Dungan
Kathryn Knauer, soprano
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 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;
it is in dying
that we are born
to eternal life.
--St. Francis of Assisi
