God gave us a world to live in,
Food to put on our plates,
Water to drink when we are thirsty,
That flows down rivers and lakes.
Animals that live on the land,
Birds that fly in the sky,
Fish that live in the sea,
All these things that please the eye.
When will we come to realise,
What a beautiful world we have,
We should all want good for the earth,
Not destruction and all that is bad.
So why do we have to fight,
Bringing loss, heartbreak and tears,
We live our lives each day,
With uncertainties, worries and fears.
Why is there so much bitterness,
Let's say to ourselves it must cease,
People should all come together,
Then the world will at last live in peace.
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom, for me and you.
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue, and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night.
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces, of people going by.
I see friends, shaking hands, saying how do you do
They're really saying, "I love you."
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow;
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself..... what a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces, of people going by.
I see friends, shaking hands, saying how do you do
They're really saying, "I love you."
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow;
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself..... what a wonderful world.
Oh..... yea.....
