About the song
I read St Francis prayer and felt inspired to write the lyric. I sent the lyric to Alice Olsen because I love her melodies and we're building a catalog of hymns and inspirational songs. Then Alice found Kimo and asked him to create the recording.
Lyrics
MAKE ME AN INSTRUMENT OF YOUR PEACE

Written by: Ande Rasmussen & Alice Olsen
demo by Kimo Forrest

verse 1
Let me bring love
Where there is hate
When I feel doubt
Fill me with faith
I dedicate
my life to You
In quiet prayer
I ask You to

Chorus:
MAKE ME AN INSTRUMENT
OF YOUR PEACE
Use me like a tool
to set others free
Help me share Your love
with everyone I see
MAKE ME AN INSTRUMENT
OF YOUR PEACE

Verse 2
Where there's despair
Let me give hope
Don't comfort me
Let me console
And in the darkness
shine Your light
So I may find
Eternal life

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
Show me where to go
Tell me what to do
Lord I need to know
Yes, I depend on You
So help me live my life
The way You want me to
MAKE ME AN INSTRUMENT OF YOUR PEACE

Repeat Chorus
