A Beautiful Thing

by Anita Wellington

Verse 1

The first time I laid eyes on you

It was nothin' special

And the first time that I heard you speak

It was nothin' new

I was searching for so many years

For someone to settle for

I never dreamed that God had something for me

As wonderful as you

Chorus

Sometimes God doesn't send

A thousand angels down to guide you

He might not make the stars fall from the sky

To show you

And sometimes He just whispers

"You're on your way,

To a beautiful thing."

Verse 2

Bright neon signs and snow-white angels

Could not compare

To the hint in your smile

Or the sun in your hair

And in a way I thank God

That I couldn't see

Cuz there was so much joy in realizing

That you were made for me

Chorus

Sometimes God doesn't send

A thousand angels down to guide you

He might not make the stars fall from the sky

To show you

And sometimes He just whispers

"You're on your way,

To a beautiful thing."

Bridge

Right under my nose

There all the time

How could I know that He'd make you mine?

Right here right now I promise you

The rest of my life I will stand by you...

Chorus

Sometimes God doesn't send

A thousand angels down to guide you

He might not make the stars fall from the sky

To show you

And sometimes He just whispers

"You're on your way,"

Yeah sometimes He just whispers

"You're on your way,

To a beautiful, a beautiful thing."
