Serenity to Stand

#genre: Pop Gospel #mood: Hopeful, Peaceful, Uplifting

[Verse 1]
God, I’m tired of wrestling what I can’t control,
Carrying the weight like a stone in my soul.
Teach my hands to open, let my shoulders release,
Trade my noise for quiet, trade my fear for peace.

[Pre-Chorus]
When the world won’t move, when the door won’t change,
Hold me steady in the middle of the rain.
I don’t need the answers—just Your voice, Your light,
Guiding me through the night.

[Chorus]
Grant me serenity to accept what I can’t change,
Courage to rise when I can make a way.
And give me wisdom—Lord, let my heart see true,
What is mine to carry, what belongs to You.
Serenity… courage… wisdom… I’m held by You.

[Post-Chorus]
(Oh-oh) I’m held by You.
(Oh-oh) I’m held by You.

[Verse 2]
Help me live today, not a thousand tomorrows,
Not replaying old regrets, not borrowing sorrows.
Let me taste the joy in the small and the near,
Find a holy moment when You whisper, “I’m here.”

[Pre-Chorus 2]
If hardship is a pathway, then I won’t run away,
I’ll walk it with You step by step, day by day.
I won’t demand my version—Lord, I’ll trust Your view,
You make all things new.

[Bridge]
One day at a time (one day at a time),
One breath at a time (one breath at a time),
I surrender my will, I surrender my pride,
You’re the peace I can’t find on my own inside.
As the world is—not how I demand it to be,
You’re still God, You’re still good, You’re still leading me.

[Build]
So I’ll be “reasonably happy,” steady in the fight,
Not perfect—but present, walking in Your light.
And when this life feels heavy, You remind me again:
This is not the end.

[Final Chorus]
Grant me serenity to accept what I can’t change,
Courage to move when You call my name.
And give me wisdom—Lord, let my heart see true,
What is mine to carry, what belongs to You.
Serenity… courage… wisdom… I’m held by You.
(Choir) Held by You… held by You…

[Outro]
Forever You’re faithful, forever You’re near,
In this life and the next—You calm every fear.
Amen… (Amen)
Amen… (Amen)
