Lead us from death to life, from falsehood to truth;
Lead us from despair to hope, from fear to trust;
Lead us from hate to love, from war to peace;
Let peace fill our heart, our world, our universe.
Peace to us all. Amen.

In our situation of troubles let us seek the peace that we need, to find a binding unity of love and wisdom beyond suffering. We have security in our own circle of friends and family, but let us go beyond to bring in others.
In our world of uncertainty and tension let the people and governments seek the peace that we need and find wisdom and a binding unity beyond suffering. We have had security in our own blocs and alliances, but let us go beyond to bring in others.
For when we are at peace with our friends we are at peace with nations: what we as persons or as a people send into the lives of others comes back to our own.
The world is our country, all are brothers and sisters and to do good is our religion.
