God grant me serenity

to accept the things I cannot

change, courage to change the

things I can, and wisdom to

know the difference.

Living one day at a time,

enjoying one moment at a time.

Accepting hardship as a

pathway to peace.

Taking, as Jesus 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 in the next.

Amen.
