If I Don't Get It

If you do not get it from yourself, where will you go for it? -- Zen saying

If I don't have water I can go to the well
If I have no tongue I can go to the bell
If I need some salt I'll get it from a shell
The Lord's got everything I need.

If I'm sick of mountains I can go to the plain
If I cry some tears I can mix them with the rain
Get tired of being happy, I can always find some pain
The Lord's got everything I need.

If you don't get it from yourself
where will you go for it?
If you don't get it from yourself
who would you ask for it?
If you don't get it from yourself
how would you find it
what would you call it
why do without it?

If I'm out of sand I can get some at the beach
If I want some juice, I can get it from a peach
I need my God and he's always within reach
The Lord's got everything I need, Lord, Lord,
The Lord has everything I need.
