How to Make the World a Better Place - Make Us Channels of Thy Peace, Ep. 13

Lord most high our heav’nly father,
All our lives we dedicate to Thee:
All our labors, all our joys and woes,
All our pleasure, all our melody.

Make us each a channel of Thy peace:
When in darkness, guide us from above;
Where there’s sorrow may we sow Thy joy;
Where there’s hatred may we share Thy love.

O Signore mio altissimo
O Signore, mio_Altissimo,
la mia vita dedico a Te:
le fatiche, gioia e dolor;
il piacere e la melodia.

Fammi mezzo della pace Tua;
quando_è buio, guidami dal ciel;
dov’è_offesa, ch’io porti perdon;
dov’è l’odio, ch’io porti l’amor.

“They roam the countryside,
St. Francis and his brothers,
Bringing peace, like medicine,
To battled hearts, and innocence, like refreshing rain
To lives that are parched and barren.”
