“Serenity Prayer” (Full Version)


God grant me the serenity

To accept the things I cannot change;

The courage to change the things I can;

And the wisdom to know the difference.

 

Living one day at a time;

Enjoying one moment at a time;

Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;

 

Taking, as you did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;

 

Trusting that you will make all things right

If I surrender to your Will;

 

So that I may be reasonably happy in this life

 

And supremely happy with you

Forever and ever in the next.
