Lyrics

I see trees of green,

red ros es, too; the I see them bloom the for me and you, and I think to my self,

“What a won der ful world.”

I see skies of blue,

and clouds of white, the bright bless ed day, the dark sa cred night, and I think to my self,

“What a won der ful world.”

I see world.”

The col ors of the rain bow, so pret ty in the sky, are al so on the fac es of peo ple go in’ by.

I see friends shak in’ hands, say in’, “How do you do?”

They’re real ly say in’, “I love you.” I hear ba bies cry.

I watch them grow.

They’ll learn much more than I’ll ev er know, and I think to my self,

“What a won der ful world,”

yes, I think to my self,

“What a won der ful world.”
