Everything in Its Time

Sometimes I wonder what lies ahead

How long till my hunger is fed?

They say it's hard to make it in this part of town

So many people on this merry-go-round



Some folks try astrology

Some turn to crystal balls

To find an answer

To get through it all

I just fall on my knees and I try to pray

In the silence I can hear Him say



The river runs and the river hides

Out to the ocean and under the sky

I promise you, the answer will come

Hold on to patience and watch for the sign

Everything in its time



I often feel like I'm two steps behind

Somebody must have moved that finish line

There are a thousand reasons

Why I should give up

But I'm stubborn in the things I believe

 

'cause the river runs and the river hides

Out to the ocean and under the sky

I promise you, the answer will come

Hold on to patience and watch for the sign



'cause maybe there's another plan

One I still can't see

A little surprise, like Your love in my life

Funny how time changes how we see

Ohh



There are a thousand reasons

Why I should give up

But I'm stubborn in the things I believe



'Cause the river runs and the river hides

Out to the ocean and under the sky

I promise you, the answer will come

Hold on to patience and watch for the sign ohh

Everything in its time

Everything in its time
