Peace Prayer of Saint Francis (Nestor) - Salt Lake Vocal Artists

The Salt Lake Vocal Artists perform "Peace Prayer of Saint Francis" by Leo Nestor on July 6, 2017 in Libby Gardner concert hall, under the direction of Dr. Brady Allred. This video was taken at the dress rehearsal of the Vocal Artists Bon Voyage concert prior to their tour to Catalonia, Spain, where they were invited to perform at the 11th IFCM World Symposium on Choral Music in Barcelona.
Text:
O 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 dispair, 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.

I’m moved in tears. Those words became so meaningful through your interpretation.

Reminds me of Eric Whitacres setting of: "A Boy and a Girl" by Octavio Paz.
