Thank God For Kids

If it weren't for kids have you ever thought

There wouldn't be no Santa Claus

Or, "Look what the stork just brought"

Thank God for kids

And 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?"

And a hundred other, "Where's and why?"

I really don't know, but I try

Thank God for kids

And when I look down in those trusting eyes

That look to me, I realize

There's love that I can't buy

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?

And when you get down on your knees tonight

Thank the Lord for His guiding light

And pray they'll turn out rignt

Thank God for kids

Mm-hmm, thank God for kids
