Wonderful Life
Natalie Grant Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Beautiful is in the sky
Watch it slowly
All our time is flying by, too fast
Where we're heading isn't always clear
It can feel like no end
But everything we need is here, right now
Cause the sun is shining
And the world is alive

[Chorus]
Everything's alright
Cause all we've ever needed
Is the perfect day to be alive
So no more waiting now
For a wonderful life
Cause it's a wonderful life right now

Beautiful is in the eyes, of a friend or a stranger
Soul searching in the skies, for love
We're always planning on escape
To something higher
But there is a better way to live
Cause the sun is shining
And the whole wide world is alive

[Chorus]

And the sun is shining
And it's so good to be alive


Everything's alright
Cause all we've ever needed
Is the perfect day to be alive





[Chorus]
