Forty years ago this summer, the late John Denver had his first big hit with this evocative song, which was all over the radio. I can't believe it's been that long ago already. Whatever. Enjoy:
Prayer for Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, harmony; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may seek not so much 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.

40 years! Really? I loved that song.
Yup, really - isn't that incredible? I loved it too, has the feel of an old-timey tune even though it was written just a few months before it was released.
