1. Everything, Lord,
Happens for a reason,
Although I cannot guess
What it might be.
2. Everything, Lord,
Happens for a reason,
So I’m content:
You know what’s best for me.
3. Everything, Lord,
Happens for a reason,
And I trust that from bad
Good things can come.
4. Everything, Lord,
Happens for a reason,
So I can say, with Christ:
Your will be done.
