God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
神啊, 求祢賜我寧靜接受我無法改變的事情,
courage to change the things I can,
賜我勇氣去改變我能變的事情,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
賜我智慧知道這二者的不同。
Living one day at a time,
一天一天的過日子,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
享受生命的每分每刻,
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,
接納艱苦是通往平安之路,
Taking, as Jesus did,
效法耶穌, 一如祂那樣。
This sinful world as it is, Not as I would have it,
接納這罪孽深重的世界的本相,而非自己所期望那個世界,
Trusting that You will make all things right,
堅信祢必會把一切恢復美好。
If I surrender to Your will,
若我順服祢旨意,
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
好叫我此生能適當地快樂,
And supremely happy with You forever in the next.
並在來生得享與祢永聚的極樂
Amen!
阿們!
