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
 
 With-out Big Bird or 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.
  
 
 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.
  
 
 Daddy, how does this thing fly?
 
 And a hundred other where's and why's
 
 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
 
  Thank God for Kids
