I'm lookin' up, the sun is shinin'
There's not a cloud in the sky
I'm feelin' free, feelin' light as a feather
Look out, I might just take off and fly
No rainy day could ever stop this party
God has started in my soul
My life's been changed, I'm a new creation
And I've gotta let the whole world know
I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops
Gonna take it to the street
I'm telling everybody, everyone I meet
It's a wonderful life that we're livin'
When we're livin' our life for the Lord
It's a wonderful thing, it makes a sad heart sing
Who could ever ask for more
All of this and heaven too
A life worth livin' for
It's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful life
Well, I don't need a whole lot of money
To bring me happiness
I don't need to search the world over
To find the meaning of success
George Bailey learned this wonderful lesson
Living up in Bedford Falls
God has a plan for every life to touch another
His love's the greatest gift of all
I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops
Gonna take it to the street
I'm telling everybody, everyone I meet
It's a wonderful life that we're livin'
When we're livin' our life for the Lord
It's a wonderful thing, it makes a sad heart sing
Who could ever ask for more
All of this and heaven too
A life worth livin' for
It's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful life
It's a wonderful life that we're livin'
When we're livin' our life for the Lord
It's a wonderful thing, it makes a sad heart sing
Who could ask for more
All of this and heaven too
A life worth livin' for
It's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful life
Yeah, yeah, wonderful life, oh...
(It's a wonderful life that we're livin')
Just like George Bailey
(It's a wonderful thing, it makes a sad heart sing...)
