《寧靜禱告 Serenity Prayer》

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
神啊，求祢賜給我平靜的心，去接受我無法改變的事，

courage to change the things I can,
賜給我勇氣，去做我能改變的事；

and the wisdom to know the difference.
賜給我智慧，去分辨這兩者的不同。

Living one day at a time,
一天一天地過日子，

Enjoying one moment at a time,
一時一刻地欣賞生命，

Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,
接納艱苦是通往平安之路，

Taking, as Jesus did,
能夠效法耶穌，

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,
堅信祢必會把萬事變為美好，

If I surrender to Your will,
若我順服祢的旨意，

So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
好叫我此生能快樂地生活，

And supremely happy with You forever in the next.
並在永世裡得享與祢永遠同在的大喜樂。

Amen.
阿們。
