Don’t cry
The sound you hear is just a car going by
The light you see is just an aeroplane
Good-night
You’ll wake up in the morning with the sunshine
You’ll wake up in the morning with the bells of the earth
And hey
I can say the world is beautiful
Sometimes
I sit up in the kitchen while the rain falls
I sit up in the kitchen with my radio
And hey...
Don’t cry
The sound you here is just a car going by
The light you see is just a firefly
The sound you hear is just a car going by
The light you see is just an aeroplane
You’ll wake up in the morning with the sunshine
You’ll wake up in the morning with the bells of the earth
I can say the world is beautiful
Sometimes
I sit up in the kitchen while the rain falls
I sit up in the kitchen with my radio
Don’t cry
The sound you here is just a car going by
The light you see is just a firefly

my goodness, what an amazing song. It's like a lullaby wrapped cozily in a love song. "I can say the world is beautiful" that line and the way he sings it and the accompaniment of the instruments with it always drives me to complete awe. It makes me think that maybe this crazy scary world has something to offer. Maybe things aren't as bad as they seem. Heck, maybe behind every terror there is a face and behind every statistic there is a name and a history and maybe behind every hate there is a person and behind every act of violence there is hope. Maybe this world that has gone so horribly wrong isn't ugly. Maybe there is beauty that must be digged up like treasure and held onto tightly like a child in our arms.
Maybe that knowledge is God's gift to us.
