Grant Me Serenity
God, grant me serenity…
Amidst the chaos and noise
Let me journey in simplicity
Bid me, listen for your voice
And when temptation comes to call
Hear my cry; draw me near
Lest I stumble hard and fall
Grant that I may never fear
The subtle guile of the serpent’s tongue
May I not be blind to another's needs
And keep your Word in my heart a constant song
For only in you do I find peace and my spirit is free!
