Thank God for Kids
==================
w&m: Eddy Raven, 1974

[Verse 1]
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 Mickey Mouse,
and Kool Aid on the couch.
Thank God for kids.

[Refrain]
Thank God for kids, there's magic for awhile,
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?

[Verse 2]
"Daddy, how does this thing fly?"
And a hundred other wheres and whys.
You really don't know but you try.
Thank God for kids.
When you look down in those trusting eyes
that look to you, you realize
there's a love that you can't buy.

[Refrain]

[Verse 3]
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.
