Sitting at the table, pouring out my day

At the feet of an angel She knew just what to say

Eyes that knew freedom And sorrow's unsaid

She breathed out her wisdom and here's what she said

She told me to be grateful she told me to be kind

She told me to stand up for what is right

Said there's a time for peace

And God help us, there's a time for strife

She said

Go and get your lesson You will find your blessin'

Go and get your lesson You will find your blessin'

Each and every good life Has seen the hardest of times

You just learn from it, Honey and keep your head held high

She told me to be grateful she told me to be kind

She told me to stand up for what is right

Said there's a time for peace

And God help us, there's time for strife

She said

Go and get your lesson You will find your blessin'

Go and get your lesson You will find your blessin'

Go

She told me to be grateful she told me to be kind

She told me to stand up for what is right

Said there's a time for peace

And Lord help us, there's time for strife

She said

Go and get your lesson You will find your blessin'

Go! Go! Go! Go! and get your lesson

There is a time for peace
