My Father's Creed

My father loved this song that he occasionally heard at Mass. I think it really summed up how he lived his life and seems so fitting a motivator for our challenge with pancreatic cancer. I am proud to bring this to our web site.

Make Me a Channel

Make me a channel of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me bring your love.
Where there is injury, your pardon, Lord.
And where there's doubt, true faith in you.

Make me a channel of your peace.
Where there's despair in life, let me bring hope.
Where there is darkness, only light.
And where there's sadness, ever joy.

O Master, grant that I may never seek.
So much to be consoled as to console.
To be understood as to understand.
To be loved, as to love, with all my soul.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
In giving to all men that we receive.
And in dying that we're born to eternal life.
