The Earth is our mother just turning around
With her trees in the forest and roots underground
Our father above us who's sigh is the wind
Paint us a rainbow without any end
As the river runs freely the mountain does rise
Let me touch with my fingers and see with my eyes
In the hearts of the children of pure love still roams
Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home
Like the flower that shattered the stone
Sparrows find freedom beholding the sun
In the infinite beauty we're all joined in one
I reach out before me and look to the sky
Then I hear someone whisper it's something pass by
As the river runs freely the mountain does rise
Let me touch with my fingers and see with my eyes
In the hearts of the children of pure love still roams
Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home
Like the flower that shattered the stone
Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home
Like the flower that shattered the stone

Sad his song cut off before John finished.
His singing was tops above all , to influence great people like Bob Hope & others.
Thanks. ~~Ava`~~

remember watching this show in 74 when i was in 5th grade. gives me chills
and makes me sad to think of life in such simpler times as a ten year old. his music is an emotion. one that celebrates life and a positive outlook. you don't get that today.
