Ron Sexsmith - All In Good Time lyrics

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
