Thank God for Kids

-
I heard this song over the holidays and I love songs that pull at my heartstrings and this one certainly did! It is a song by the Oak Ridge Boys - you can go to ww.wyoutube.com and type in "Thank God for Kids" if you want to hear it - but the lyrics are below...

If it weren't for kids have you ever thought

There wouldn't be no Santa Clause

Look what the stork just brought

Thank God for Kids

We'd all live in a quiet house

Without Big Bird or a Mickey Mouse

And Kool-aid on the couch

Thank God for Kids

Thank God for kids there's magic for a while

A special kind of sunshine in a smile

Do you ever stop to think? or wonder why?

The nearest thing to Heaven is a child

Daddy how does this thing fly?

A hundred other where's and why's

You really don't know but we try

Thank God for Kids

When you look down in those trustin eyes

That look to you, you realize

Its love that you can't buy

Thank God for Kids

Thank God for there's magic for a while

A special kind of sunshine in a smile

Do you ever stop to think? or wonder why?

The nearest thing to Heaven is a child

When you get down on your knees tonight

To thank the Lord for his guiding light

And pray they turn out right

Thank God for Kids

Thank God for Kids
