Lyrics
(PROLOGUE/CHORUS 1)
LAY DOWN YOUR BURDEN
EASE IT AWAY
LEAVE ALL THAT JUDGEMENT
FOR JUDGEMENT DAY
YOU KNOW EVERYTHING
ALWAYS TURNS OUT LIKE IT SHOULD
AND NO MATTER HOW IT LOOKS,
"IT'S ALL GOOD!"
(VERSE 1)
I USED TO GET ANGRY
MAN, I WAS DOWN
WHEN ALL MY WELL-MADE PLANS
GOT TWISTED AROUND
I'D THROW UP MY HANDS AND SAY,
"WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME,
AGAIN?"
WELL,
TIME ALWAYS SHOWS US
IF WE JUST WAIT AND SEE
GOD HAS A GREATER PLAN
INFINITELY
AND WE'D LIVE A WHOLE LOT LIGHTER
IF WE ONLY WOULD
SMILE IN THE FACE OF DANGER
AND SAY "IT'S ALL GOOD"
(CHORUS 2)
SO LEAVE ALL YOUR WORRIES
LEAVE THEM BEHIND
DUST THEM LIKE COBWEBS
RIGHT OUT OF YOUR MIND
ONE DAY YOU WILL WAKE UP
AND ALL WILL BE UNDERSTOOD
YOU'LL LET OUT A LITTLE LAUGH
AND SAY, "IT'S ALL GOOD!"
(BRIDGE)
ONLY GOOD WILL BE
IF WE HAVE EYES TO SEE
SAY IT LOUD, SAY IT CLEAR
IF YOU HAVE EARS TO HEAR...
(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK)
(REPRISE-CHORUS 1)
SO LAY DOWN YOUR BURDEN
EASE IT AWAY
LEAVE ALL THAT JUDGEMENT
FOR JUDGEMENT DAY
YOU KNOW EVERYTHING
ALWAYS TURNS OUT LIKE IT SHOULD
AND NO MATTER HOW IT LOOKS
IT'S ALL GOOD
NO MATTER HOW IT LOOKS
IT'S ALL GOOD
I SAID, NO MATTER HOW IT LOOKS
IT'S ALL GOOD
