G.S.P Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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.
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 crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.
The song "What a Wonderful World" by G.S.P is a beautiful and nostalgic tribute to the beauty that surrounds us in nature and in the people we encounter in our lives. The first verse describes the beauty of nature - trees and roses that bloom for all to see. The second verse focuses on the sky, with its blue expanse and white clouds. The imagery in these verses suggests a sense of peace and wonder at the natural world.
The third verse, which may be the most powerful, also highlights the ways in which human relationships can be beautiful. The colors of the rainbow are compared to the faces of strangers passing by, and the singer sees friends shaking hands and saying hello. This verse suggests that people can be just as beautiful as nature, and that connection and love between individuals is a source of immense beauty and joy.
The final verse brings us back to the cycle of life - the singer hears babies crying, and watches them grow, knowing that they will learn things that he may never know. Yet even in the face of life's challenges and mysteries, the singer resolves to see the world as a wonderful place.
