My job is to inform,
Not to convince.
(Saint Bernadette)

Dear Lord, we need strength and grace,
Grace from up above,
To go forth to speak the truth,
To speak the truth, with love.

Give to us Your wisdom,
Fill us with Your light.
Take possession of our speech.
Lord, help us do this right.

Bless us with true courage.|
The world paints truth as gray.
Show us the way we are to speak.
Give us the words to say.

Help us, Jesus, to show others—
Without battle, without fight,
That it’s true, can’t be denied,
Some things are black and white.

Help us remember, Jesus,
Of peace, You are our Prince.
Our job is simply to inform.
Our job’s not to convince.
