The Lyrics
Verse 1
I wanted this song to hold a little of your story, In barefoot dancing in the kitchen, In the small things heaven notices, In the love that made a home. This adoption day feels like a doorway, Not just a date we pass through. We thank God for all the mercy That has gently gathered you.
Chorus
So here is Great Things, A blessing wrapped in melody. Psalm 126:3 is the reference near it, Pointing back to God's own peace. For every prayer and every morning, For every road He brought you through, We give thanks with all our heart today: Grace keeps shining here in you.
Verse 2
There is joy in quiet joy, There is faith in how you stay. There is kindness in the ordinary That has marked you day by day. When the plans were bright and easy, When the path had turns unknown, Love kept finding words of blessing, And God kept making goodness known.
Chorus
So here is Great Things, A blessing wrapped in melody. Psalm 126:3 is the reference near it, Pointing back to God's own peace. For every prayer and every morning, For every road He brought you through, We give thanks with all our heart today: Grace keeps shining here in you.
