All I Need Is Time is the tenth studio album by American R&B quartet Gladys Knight & the Pips, released in June 1973 (see 1973 in music) by Motown Records on the Soul Records label.

The album contains the covers "Heavy Makes You Happy" (The Staple Singers) and "Thank You (Falletin Me Be Mice Elf Agin) (Sly and the Family Stone).
