He didn't promise you a Cadillac He didn't say that you'd get paid back He didn't tell you that you'd walk away The lottery when times got fair Keep seekin' and you will find He'll meet your needs in the nick of time He didn't promise no penthouse view Perfect health or a pleasure cruise No velvet Elvis or a Vegas show No run o' luck at Lake Tahoe
But those who trust Him will be doin' fine He'll meet your needs in the nick of time He came to show us how to really live He said, we're blessed when we freely give He healed the sick and He raised the dead Healed my brain when I was, outta my head He feeds the sparrow, turns the water to wine He'll meet your needs in the nick of time
