“What a wonderful World”

By Louis Armstrong

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 ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.
Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world. Oh yeah.

So we should care, we should, so we should care….
Our nature provides oxygen
The color of grass that is green
All living things, all living things, all living things

We should unite to win the fight

Protect our world to keep the light
Our nature keeps you alive
Hold on tight hold on tight and we will fly…

The mountains, the oceans, the sky and all these things
Are gifts of God, are gifts of God for everyone.

Our nature –ture, ture, our nature –ture –ture
