[1st verse:]

For ev'ry care there's an angel
Who makes the care seem small
For ev'ry pray'r there's an answer
From One Who answers all

[chorus:]
The flowers pray'd for sunshine
So God gave the flowers the Sun

The birds pray'd to be merry
So God gave a song to each one

The trees pray'd for the Springtime
So God gave the Spring to each tree

My lonely heart pray'd for someone
So God gave you to me

[2nd verse:]
For ev'ry heart there is gladness
When eyes are wet with tears
For ev'ry care there's an answer
From one Who always hears
