Intro

(F) Earth is our (F/A) mother, just (Bb) turning a(F)round 
With her (Am) trees in the forest and (C) roots underground. 
Our (F) father a(F/A)bove us, whose (Bb) sigh is the (F) wind, 
(Gm) Paint us a (Am) rainbow with(C)out any (F) end.

As the (C) river runs freely, the (Bb) mountain does (F) rise.
Let me (Bb) touch with my (F) fingers, and (C) see with my eyes.
In the (Bb) hearts of the children, a (F) pure love still (C) grows.
Like a (F) bright star in (Bb) heaven that (F) lights our way (Bb) home
Like the (Gm) flower that (C) shattered the (F) stone.

(F) Sparrows find (F/A) freedom be(Bb)holding the (F) sun
In the (Am) infinite beauty, we're (C) all joined in one.
I (F) reach out be(F/A)fore me and (Bb) look to the (F) sky
Did I (Gm) hear someone (Am) whisper, did (C) something pass (F) by?

As the (C) river runs freely, the (Bb) mountain does (F) rise.
Let me (Bb) touch with my (F) fingers, and (C) see with my eyes.
In the (Bb) hearts of the children, a (F) pure love still (C) grows.
Like a (F) bright star in (Bb) heaven that (F) lights our way (Bb) home
Like the (Gm) flower that (C) shattered the (F) stone.
Like a (F) bright star in (Bb) heaven that (F) lights our way (Bb) home
Like the (Gm) flower that (C) shattered the (F) stone.
