Lilies of the field
They don't toil and they don't spin
Sparrows in the wind
They don't sing of where they've been
If the hairs on my head are counted
And the tears that I cry are too
Then why would I be anxious
When it's all just the same to you
I lift my eyes
I know
Everything gonna be alright
My Lord
So why should I worry
Not a thing
That I lack
You're with me
That's a fact
I'm alive
It's a ride
Where I go Lord I know it's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Best days or my worst
If I'm last or if I'm first
Sunshine or rain
The sky might fall but You remain
If the whole world's in your hands Lord
And mercy's always new
Then why would I be anxious
When it's all just the same to you
I lift my eyes
I know
Everything gonna be alright
My Lord
So why should I worry
Not a thing
That I lack
You're with me
That's a fact
I'm alive
It's a ride
Where I go Lord I know it's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Where I go Lord I know
There's peace for the trouble this day
There's hope that everything could change
Tomorrow's gonna find its way
If you're hanging on the edge of faith
There's peace for the trouble this day
There's hope that everything could change
Tomorrow's gonna find its way
If you're hanging on the edge of faith
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
I lift my eyes
I know
Casting all my cares aside
My Lord
So why should I worry
Not a thing
That I lack
You're with me
That's a fact
I'm alive
It's a ride
Where I go Lord I know it's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
