Back when I was a kid I thought gifts from God only came from church

back when i was a kid i thought gifts from god only came from church

but the more that i love, the more i learn, it’s not always the way it works

sometimes you don’t see it till your looking back

when ya didn’t get what ya thought ya had to have

cus he had a bigger plan than the one you had

yours didn’t work out and aren’t you glad

when you take a look around it ain’t hard to find

everybody’s got things that money can’t buy

if the ones ya love are sitting right beside ya

then i’d say ya got a lot

the best things in life are straight from his hands

like raising kids on a piece of land

a little piece of mind when the day is done

where ya think that comes from

that’s gifts from god

it makes ya thankful for the hills that we climb

for the waves that we ride

for the lows and the highs

for the wrongs made right

for the songs we sing

for the dreams we dream

makes ya thankful for everything

hallelujah every day’s a gift from god

hallelujah every day’s a gift

hallelujah every day’s a gift from god

hallelujah every day’s a gift

hallelujah

where ya think that comes from

that’s gifts from god
