Life's challenges around us can cause our minds to stray
Thinking of the problems, the blessings slip away
Our Father's hand outstretched, how can we just ignore
Take time to see the goodness of the Lord

Troubles may surround us with sorrow, even pain
A lonely morning, a dismal evening rain
But we can change our minds by thinking on his Word
Take time to see the goodness of the Lord

Take time to see his blessing whatever we may do
Don't let a moment's blessing slip away
No matter what we're needing, He's here to see us through
With goodness from His heart everyday

To be alive, to walk in love, to know that He is there
Let's dwell upon those good things and sing of all His care
And as we sing together, we'll blend a loving chord
Take time to see the goodness of the Lo
