If I Ruled The World Lyrics

Artist: Tony Bennett

IF I RULED THE WORLD
Tony Bennett
Words by Leslie Bricusse/Music by Cyril Ornadel

If I ruled the world, ev'ry day would be the first day of spring
Every heart would have a new song to sing
And we'd sing of the joy every morning would bring

If I ruled the world, ev'ry man would be as free as a bird,
Ev'ry voice would be a voice to be heard
Take my word we would treasure each day that occurred

My world would be a beautiful place
Where we would weave such wonderful dreams
My world would wear a smile on its face
Like the man in the moon has when the moon beams
If I ruled the world every man would say the world was his friend
There'd be happiness that no man coud end
No my friend, not if I ruled the world
Every head would be held up high
There'd be sunshine in everyone's sky
If the day ever dawned when I ruled the world

The lyrics to this song are absolutely divine....... It always lifts my spirit each time I hear it..... Makes we wonder just how beautiful the world would be if these gracious lyrics were applied to our busy, discontented lives.... Would truly be a "Wonderful place"...... Bravo!

THIS HAS TO BE MY NUMBER ONE SONG FOR SELF GRATIFICATION. EVERY WORLD LEADER SHOULD HAVE THESE LYRICS TAPED TO THEIR BATHROOM MIRRORS, SO THEY CAN READ IT DAILY.THERE WOULD BE HAPPINESS THAT NO MAN COULD END.

I do not envy the person who does not appreciate the exquisite beauty of this song. No matter what your background, we're all responsible to make this world a better place than we found it. Thank you, Tony, thank you to the writer and lyricist, the choir, the orchestra, and to all the people who put this song first in my heart.

LOVELY IT COULD BE GOD SPEAKING AS HE TAKES BACK THE WORLD FROM SATAN REVELATION 21V4 NOT JUST AN IDEAL BUT A REALITY. MEANWHILE LYRICS LIKE THESE AND A FUTURE HOPE ARE REGARDED AS NON ESSENTIAL TO A TEMPORARY LIFE.
EVERY MAN WILL BE AS FREE AS A BIRD NOT CONDITIONED TO DIE THANKS
