IT AMAZES ME
by John Denver
from the album I WANT TO LIVE
He came looking for the answers
To some questions on his mind
Seeking truth and understanding
In the hope that he would find a way
To better serve his brothers
And his sisters in the sun
Sharing all that he was given
Giving all to everyone
Come and listen to the story
Of a journey once begun
Of a people and their plenty
And their season in the sun and how they
Gave themselves a symbol and things they could hold
Living lives in desperation, in the fear of letting go
It amazes me
And I know the wind will surely someday blow it all away
It amazes me
And I'm so very grateful that you made the world this way
For our paths have come together now
Where do we go from here
Will our differences divide us
Must we always live in fear, for there are
Things that we must move through
Some things to cast aside
But our Father watches over us
Our Mother will provide
It amazes me
And I know the wind will surely someday blow it all away
It amazes me
And I'm so very grateful that you made the world this way
It amazes me
It amazes me
It amazes me
