Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Make us instruments of peace
Where hatred hurts
Let kindness bring relief
Lord, make us channels of your love and peace

Make us instruments of peace
If some despair
Hope will help us breathe
Lord, make us channels of your love and peace

Make us instruments of peace
Injustice wounds
Forgiveness heals
Lord, make us channels of your love and peace
