If I were a butterfly,
I’d thank you, Lord, for giving me wings.
And if I were a robin in a tree,
I’d thank you, Lord, that I could sing.
And if I were a fish in the sea,
I’d wiggle my tail and I’d giggle with glee;
But I just thank you, Father,
For making me ‘me’.
For you gave me a heart And you gave me a smile, You gave me Jesus And you made me your child, And I just thank you, Father, For making me ‘me’.
If I were an elephant,
I’d thank you, Lord, by raising my trunk,
And if I were a kangaroo,
You know I’d hop right up to you.
And if I were an octopus,
I’d thank you, Lord, for my fine looks;
But I just thank you, Father,
For making me ‘me’.
For you gave me a heart And you gave me a smile, You gave me Jesus And you made me your child, And I just thank you, Father, For making me ‘me’.
If I were a wiggly worm,
I’d thank you, Lord, that I could squirm.
And if I were a billy goat,
I’d thank you, Lord, for my strong throat.
And if I were a fuzzy-wuzzy bear,
I’d thank you, Lord, for my fuzzy-wuzzy hair;
But I just thank you, Father,
For making me ‘me’.
For you gave me a heart And you gave me a smile, You gave me Jesus And you made me your child, And I just thank you, Father, For making me ‘me’.
