All in good time

Ron Sexsmith


It all seems so obvious now 
When I look back over my life 
There were times that I really felt down 
To think it passed me by 

But in these hours of serious doubt 
Through the coal black lonely night 
Something told me, "it'll work out" 
Something deep inside 
Was comforting me 

All in good time 
All in good time 
It said all in good time 
The bad times will be gone 

"Hold your horses", a willow tree cried 
While the sun called to me, "where's the fire?" 
"Run your course my feverish child," 
Came a voice from even higher 
Inspiring me 

All in good time 
All in good time 
It said all in good time 

We rise and fall 
We try and fail 
And people may judge us 
But angels know us darling 
All in good time 

It all seems so obvious now 
When I look back over my life 
There's a need for sorrow and doubt 
For darkness and for light 
It's how it must be 

All in good time 
All in good time 
It said all in good time 
All in good time 
The bad time will be gone
