And when the shadows descend again
Give me the eyes to see
And when the silence stills my lips
Give me the words to speak
CHORUS
Accept the things I can't change
And change the things I still can
Give me the wisdom
To know the difference
Grant me serenity
Grant me serenity
And when the river is a wall of water
Give me the strength to receive
And when twilight hides the horizon
Give me the faith to believe
CHORUS
Accept the things I can't change
And change the things I still can
Give me the wisdom
To know the difference
Grant me serenity
Grant me serenity
CHORUS
Accept the things I can't change
And change the things I still can
Give me the wisdom
To know the difference
Grant me serenity
And I'll see eternity
Grant me serenity
