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 hardship as a pathway to peace, 
taking 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.
