The life we live while on this earth
Is filled with sudden spins
We're hurt by undeserving losses
And cheered for lucky wins
We move so fast and want to much
And think we have control
But it's really just illusion
And it melts like summer snow
Because it's Your world, Father
And we're thankful that it is
Please help us to remember
When we're faced with sudden spins
Yes, it's Your world, Father
And we're thankful that it is
Please help us to remember
When we're faced with sudden spins
How can this life be so fragile
And what was here be gone
How can everything we hold so close
Be real, but not for long
Why do we believe the way things are
Is the way they'll always be
Why do we only look through our own eyes
When it's Your eyes that can see
Because it's Your world, Father
You can calm the waves and wind
And calm our trembling spirits
When the winds of change blow in
Yes, it's Your world, Father
And we're thankful that it is
Please help us to remember
When we're faced with sudden spins
Of all the things I've wondered, Lord
One answer now I know:
The world is turning at Your will
And it ever shall be so
Because it's Your world, Father
I'm really thankful that it is
And I promise to remember
When I'm faced with sudden spins
Yes, it's Your world, Father
And we're thankful that it is
Please help us to remember
When we're faced with sudden spins
Lord, help us to remember
When we're faced with sudden spins
