Searching files

Can someone shed some light on the command syntax to search ALL files on the
system for a specific word or phrase. It seems that it should be a
combination of find and grep but I haven't been able to figure out the right
combination.

Specifically, I want to locate all files which contain an IP address that
needs to be changed.

Thanks.
