My serenity (12/2/04)
The darkness blooms beyond sight
Inside myself i hide
I've given over to the temptation
of the thoughts inside my head
I beg for forgiveness for my sins
Only silence answers
I beg to understand my place
Please give me the eyes to see
Chorus: God grant me the serenity
Grant me the right to believe
Give me the eyes to see beyond the dark
I accept what I cannot change
Yet I lack the courage to fight
Will you stand beside or forsake me
God grant me the serenity
I stand here before you
Naked and alone
I run from what I don't understand
only shadows of a former life
I've broken myself
unmending pieces fall around me
I beg to find my home
Please show me the way
Chorus:
God grant me the serenity
Grant me the right to believe
Give me the eyes to see beyond the dark
I accept what I cannot change
Yet I lack the courage to fight
Will you stand beside or forsake me
God grant me the serenity
