Instrument of Peace lyrics

From Album: Christmas Wish

Where there is hatred, let me bring love.
Where there is doubt, let me bring faith.
Where there is falsehood, let me bring truth Where there is pain, I’ll comfort you. Where there is silence, let me sing praise Where there's despair, let me bring hope.
Where there is blindness, let me bring sight Where there is darkness, let me bring light.
And with these words I speak
Grant that I may not so seek
To be heard but to hear
To be consoled but to console,
Not to be seen, but to see
To be loved but to love.
For when we give love we will receive.
When we forgive love, we’ll find reprieve It is in dying we’ll be released Make me an instrument of peace

*Thanks Scott*

I perform this song many times @ many places - churches, weddings, etc. It moves me so much as the times multiply! Thank you God for your blessing of music - especially, "Instrument Of Peace"

My husband and I purchased the CD and were thrilled to hear the "Instument of Peace" Song. Olivia has out done herself in this CD it is one of her greatest works. I purchased and made gifts to the family this year of the album. I was also reminded that she was my daughters favorite singer growing up, so the album made all the music even more special because it reminded me of our daughter who went home 13 years ago. Love and light! Jennie

This is my favorite song of all. I heard her sing this song at her concert, in Louisville, Kentucky. It made me cry. This is the best song in the world. I want one day for this song to be played at my funeral. I really, really love this song, and of course, with Olivia Singing it. She sings like an angel.

I just love it. I heard it aT work for the first time- BUT never heard the whole song. Today- finally-I got to hear the whole song without any interuptions - every time I hear it the phone wrong rings or someone would come into my office. Today when I heard the disc jockey announce it. Believe it or not, I ran to the ladies bathroom, closed the door. and WOW! (we have a speaker in our ladies bathroom) They lyrics and of course OLIVA voice- Her voice songs like angel. Thank you! I will be going to after work to pick up her christmas cd. thanks ANNA
