The first man on earth, God's perfect child
Fell into temptation, cast out in the wild
Into a life of sin, the fate of all man
But God was there watching
It was part of the plan

Part of the plan, all Adam went thru
Part of the plan, though we don't understand
Part of the plan, though it seemed like Satan had won
Just remember, it was all in good hands
It was part of the plan

Christ hung there dying, alone on the tree
Gaining salvation, for you and for me
It seemed God had forsaken him, no one could understand
But God was there weeping
It was part of the plan

Part of the plan, all Jesus went thru
Part of the plan, though we don't understand
Part of the plan, though it seemed like Satan's victory was complete
Just remember, it was all in good hands
It was part of the plan

Your life is such a struggle, your back's against the wall
It seems you can't sink deeper, there's nowhere left to fall
It seems that God has left you, but please understand
God is there caring
It's part of the plan

Part of the plan, all that you're going thru
Part of the plan, though you don't understand
Part of the plan, when it seems that God is not in control
Just remember, it's all in good hands
It's part of the plan
