Thank God for Kids

If it weren't for kids have you ever thought

There wouldn't be no Santa Claus

Look what the stork just brought

Thank God for kids

We'd all live in a quiet house

Without Big Bird or Mickey Mouse

Or 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

Did you ever stop to think or wonder why

The nearest thing to Heaven is a child

Well, Daddy, how does this thing fly?

A hundred other where's and why's

I really don't know but I try

Thank God for kids

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

Did you ever stop to think or wonder why

The nearest thing to Heaven is a child

When you get down on your knees tonight

And thank the Lord for His guiding light

Just pray they turn out right

Thank God for kids
