Lyrics
THE SERENITY PRAYER
So many things I cannot change
Remove, reverse or re-arrange
I only can receive them as they are
But I know God makes no mistake
So I'll walk forward unafraid
And trust His love within to heal each scar
CHORUS:
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change
Courage to change the things I can
And wisdom to know
Wisdom to know the difference
So many things I can control
I choose to learn, to love, to grow
And rise above old patterns in my mind
I'll treat all men with dignity
Not changing them, but changing me
And living my life one day at a time
BRIDGE:
The part that I must carry out
The part here in my heart that I must let go...
