Refrain:
It's alright, it's alright.
My Jesus said He'll fix it and it's alright.
It's alright, it's alright.
My Jesus said He'll fix it and it's alright.

1 When it gets dark and I can't see my way,
Jesus said He'll fix it and it's alright.
I know he's gonna send me a brighter day.
Jesus said He'll fix it and it's alright. [Refrain]

2 That day when death comes a creepin' in,
Jesus said He'll fix it and it's alright.
I know you've fought a good fight to the end.
Jesus said He'll fix it and it's alright. [Refrain]

3 Sometimes your best friend put you down,
Jesus said He'll fix it and it's alright.
just keep your eye on the heavenly crown.
Jesus said He'll fix it and it's alright. [Refrain]
