Serenity Prayer - Complete Version

[Marny F]

SERENITY PRAYER

God, grant me the
Serenity to accept the things
I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
and
Wisdom to know the difference.

Live one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardship
As the pathway to peace.
Taking, as He did,
This sinful world as it is
not as I would have it.

Trusting that He will make
all things right
If I surrender to His will.
That I may be reasonably happy
in this life,
And supremely happy
With Him forever in the next.

...Reinhold Niebuhr
