God’s Wonderful Gifts
God gave wonderful things to me.
He gave me beautiful apple trees.
He gave me a house and a bed so snug.
He gave me parents with great big hugs.
He gave me clothes and food so good
and he gave me trees for firewood.
God’s wonderful gifts to you and me
Are very pleasant as you can see.
