JJ Heller covers Louis Armstrong's classic 'What a Wonderful World,' a song that celebrates the beauty of nature, human connection, and the simple joys of life. The lyrics describe trees, skies, rainbows, and the love shared between people, expressing gratitude for the world around us. While not explicitly Christian, the song's themes of wonder and thankfulness align with a Christian appreciation for creation. Heller's gentle rendition adds a reflective, peaceful tone, making it suitable for moments of gratitude and reflection on God's goodness in the natural world.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I see trees of green
Red roses too
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

The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
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 cryin'
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

Oh yeah
