"God Has A Way of Showing Us"
God has a way of showing us, The beauty of life each day,
He knows the joy of giving love, He teaches us to pray.
God has a way of showing us. That though the sun may shine,
Some rain must fall into each life. At any given time.
God has a way of showing us, That when our dear ones slips away, They're only gone for a little while, And we'll meet again someday.
God has a way of showing us. The path of life we trod, Is sometimes rough and sometimes smooth, It's in the hands of God. The Family
