A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace And here we are: running in place The miracle of a rainbow, the beauty of a blade of grass Finding untold treasure where others see only trash Listen. Here the thrum of wind on golden strings The bells sounding clear and pure in the trees they sing A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace And here we are: running in place Feel the complex dance around you come alive as you are filled With a racing spirit and feet that won't be stilled A song bursts forth just like the morning sun And overflows and covers you until you and it are one A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace And here we are: running in place We lose sight of what's important as we fight to survive But if we stop to look through a child's eyes we learn to truly thrive A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace But here we are: running in place A life of joy and wonder greets the sun in morning sky A life of joy and wonder will run free and learn to fly A life of joy and wonder finds gladness in the rain A life of joy and wonder finds healing amidst the pain A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace But here we are running in place A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A child's eyes are bright and strong; they don't dull or dim You might hear their quiet song if you stop and listen There is a life of joy and wonder and grace But here we are running in place A life of joy and wonder takes patience, love, and care It takes a long time, many years till we get there But a life of joy and wonder is a precious thing I'm told... Because a life of joy and wonder far surpasses the value of gold!

A Life of Joy and Wonder (Child's Eyes)
A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace And here we are: running in place The miracle of a rainbow, the beauty of a blade of grass Finding untold treasure where others see only trash Listen. Here the thrum of wind on golden strings The bells sounding clear and pure in the trees they sing A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace And here we are: running in place Feel the complex dance around you come alive as you are filled With a racing spirit and feet that won't be stilled A song bursts forth just like the morning sun And overflows and covers you until you and it are one A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace And here we are: running in place We lose sight of what's important as we fight to survive But if we stop to look through a child's eyes we learn to truly thrive A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace But here we are: running in place A life of joy and wonder greets the sun in morning sky A life of joy and wonder will run free and learn to fly A life of joy and wonder finds gladness in the rain A life of joy and wonder finds healing amidst the pain A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A life of joy and wonder and grace But here we are running in place A look at life through a child's eyes Is pure and honest; without disguise A child's eyes are bright and strong; they don't dull or dim You might hear their quiet song if you stop and listen There is a life of joy and wonder and grace But here we are running in place A life of joy and wonder takes patience, love, and care It takes a long time, many years till we get there But a life of joy and wonder is a precious thing I'm told... Because a life of joy and wonder far surpasses the value of gold!
