Song Story: 
                This song written for children shows how people are ignorant of God's Truth when they are prejudiced based on gender, appearance, so-called “IQ”,  race......
when they don't realize that God plans children long before they are born.... and that
God considers EACH child, each person, SPECIAL to Him.
So.... this song was written for children, but God has guided it to be for us all.

    It has been my deep joy over ten years to teach things about God, with His help, to high school and college-age youth.  I don't think as fast and deeply as I would prefer -- I think “in patterns' -- so God gives me ideas like parables for understanding.  One of my favorites is to send each youth a large plastic snowflake ornament each Christmas with a card that says the words that are crafted into this song.  Crafted by Creator God's Holy Spirit.

That explains verses 1 and 2.   VERSE 3's Song story:  
       I created all the music tracks except vocals in my home studio, and I “accidentally” added an extra verse complete with the final winding-down cool guitar riffs. 

      Since I didn't want to change the music project, I prayed for wisdom for what to do with Verse 3.   Immediately the concept of another draft song I'd been working on came to mind:  That we people readily accept that cats and dogs and cows and whatever have interestingly different colorations that do not make one cat better than another, for example. 

   --  So why are we humans so stupid about racism? 
             (And “stupid” is the nicest word to put in print.)
    --Why do we humans value people based on appearance?
    -- Why do we humans say people with high IQ 

               or different skills are “better”?

    It's my prayer that God will use this song not only
to help each child, of any age, to realize how much that he or she is worth to God.... 
but also how much EVERY person is.... no matter the color.  And how God planned each of us since  before we were even born.         -ddo

LYRICS
1
God made you different, and different is good.
Thousands of years could not make one more “you.”
God made you special ---  and others are, too.  For
Thousands of years, God has loved every person.

CHORUS
Like zillions of snowflakes, there's JUST ONE YOU.
Psalm One-Hundred-Thirty-nine --- GOD formed YOU  like         [Psalm 139]
NO ONE ELSE ever.  
God loves you!    ...................  God loves  you    [ fill in your name here ].

2
God made ME different, and different is good.
No one else ever has God made like me, too.
God made ME special --- and others are, too.
God loves me forever,   and God                CHORUS

3
We're different colors, and different is good.
God the Creator made his people one world.
God made us special.  We're brothers and sisters.
Whatever our color, God made us all special, too.    CHORUS

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
“You [God] formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are Your works, and THAT my soul knows very well.  My frame was not hidden from You 
when I was made in secret and skilfully wrought 
in the lowest parts of the earth. 
Your eyes saw my substance being yet unformed. And in your book they all were written, the days fashioned FOR  when AS YET there were none of them.”
  -- Psalm 139: 13-16 NKJV.
