I met a woman down the street at the park where my kids play
She was living underneath the trees because it's pretty hard to find a job these days
We talked about the ups and downs of her life as the tears filled her eyes
She smiled and said something I will never forget

In all things, all things
Give thanks to the One who meets our need
Before we know we even need it
Because all things, of all the things
I just can't handle so
I hand it to the One who takes care
Of all things

Tweet tweet tweet way up high in the sky fly the little birds (with not a care in the world)
But how much more does our Father provide for the ones He loves
And I'm ashamed how I complain every day bout things that don't matter anyway
And it makes me think of the woman down my street who said

In all things, all things
Give thanks to the One who meets our need
Before we know we even need it
Because all things, of all the things
I just can't handle so
I hand it to the One who takes care
Of all things

To the scared soldier there on the front lines
To the cancer patient running out of time
To the father afraid he's gonna lose it all
To the single mom that doesn't even know where to start
To the ones who think they're all out of hope
To the ones who know the sting of Death and feel all alone
Oh, cast your cares for He cares for us
And there's nothing in this life that's bigger
Bigger than His love
I have a reason to give

All things, all things
Give thanks to the One who meets our need
Before we know we even need it
Because all things, of all the things
I just can't handle so
I hand it to the One who takes care
Of all things
All things, all things
I know You're taking care of all things, all things
I'm gonna trust You
