God’s Power: Alcoholics Anonymous Step #2

 

I believe in God’s power. I believe that complete faith in God can help bring the miracle of change into my life. I am not alone.

Step #2:

Came to believe that a power greater
than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

 

Restore Me to Sanity

Where are the answers?
Where can I turn?
Is there a Power
Who can help me to learn?

Is there a Power
Who understands?
Is there a Power
Who will take my hand?


Yes, there is a Power
Greater than I
Who restores me to sanity
If I can but try—

To believe on God’s words,
To feel of God’s love,
To recognize God
As the Power above.
