Lord, we pray for the power to be gentle; the strength to be forgiving; the patience to be understanding; and the endurance to accept the consequences of holding to what we believe to be right.
May we put our trust in the power of good to overcome evil and the power of love to overcome hatred.
We pray for the vision to see and the faith to believe in a world emancipated from violence, a new world where fear shall no longer lead men to commit injustice, nor selfishness make them bring suffering to others.
Help us to devote our whole life and thought and energy to the task of making peace, praying always for the inspiration and the power to fulfill the destiny for which we and all men were created. Amen.
 
Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and Blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now, and at the our of our death. Amen.
 
Father in heaven, take away our hearts of stone and give us new hearts of flesh. Teach us your ways and grant that we may serve you in everyone we meet.

Lord, make me an instrument of your 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,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.

Amen.
 
Lord Jesus Christ, may every person in the world find their peace in You. Amen.
 
Mary, Queen of Peace, we entrust our lives to you. Shelter us from war, hatred, and oppression. Teach us to live in peace, to educate ourselves for peace. Inspire us to act justly, to revere all God has made. Root peace firmly in our hearts and in our world. Amen.
- Pope John Paul II
 
There’s a prayer on my lips that the world cannot hear.
Lord, hear our prayer.
There’s a prayer in my mind that my lips cannot speak.
Lord, hear our prayer.
There’s a prayer in my heart that my mind cannot form.
Lord, hear our prayer.
You, who know our hearts’ deepest longing,
You, who lit the flame of love within us,
You, who long to share of yourself.
Lord, hear our prayer.
There’s a sin on my soul that my heart cannot shed.
Lord, hear our prayer.
There’s a man in the night and my eyes looked away.
Lord, hear our prayer.
There’s a child shedding tears that my love couldn’t stop.
Lord, hear our prayer.
You, who know our hearts’ deepest longing,
You, who lit the flame of love within us,
You, who long to share of yourself.
Lord, hear our prayer.
There’s a cry in a land that my feet have never walked.
Lord, hear our prayer.
There is pain in a place that my hands cannot touch.
Lord, hear our prayer.
There is arming for war and the innocent are threatened.
Lord, hear our prayer.
You, who know our hearts’ deepest longing,
You, who lit the flame of love within us,
You, who long to share of yourself.
Lord, hear our prayer.
So I give you my feet that they may walk upon your pathways.
Lord, hear our prayer.
And I give you my hands that you might touch the world around me.
Lord, hear our prayer.
And I give you my tongue that it may sing your songs of gladness.
And I give you my mind that it may dream a dream of newness.
And I give you my soul that it may burn to see your justice.
And I give you my heart that it may burst upon creation.
You, who know our hearts’ deepest longing,
You, who lit the flame of love within us,
You, who long to share of yourself.
Lord, hear our prayer.

In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
 
PATER NOSTER,
qui es in caelis,
sanctificetur nomen tuum.
Adveniat regnum tuum.
Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra.
Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie,
et dimitte nobis debita nostra
sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem,
sed libera nos a malo. Amen.
