Amazon (let This Be A Voice)

This song appears on four albums, and was first released on the Different
Directions Album, and has also been released on The Gift You Are and The John
Denver Collection - Sunshine On My Shoulder Albums. A live version appears on
The Wildlife Concert Album.

There is a river that runs from the
mountains
That one river is all rivers
All rivers are that
one

There is a tree that stands in the forest
That one tree is all
forests
All trees are that one

There is a flower that blooms in the
desert
That one blossom is all flowers
All flowers are that
one

There is a bird that sings in the jungle
That one song is all
music
All songs are that one

It is the song of life
It is the
flower of faith
It is the tree of temptation
It is the river of no
regret

There is a child that cries in the ghetto
That one child is
all children
All children are that one

There is a vision that shines
in the darkness
That one vision is all of our dreams

It is a vision
of heaven
It is a child of promise
It is the song of life
It is the
river of no regret

Let this be a voice for the mountains
Let this be
a voice for the river
Let this be a voice for the forest
Let this be a
voice for the flowers
Let this be a voice for the ocean
Let this be a
voice for the desert
Let this be a voice for the children
Let this be a
voice for the dreamers
Let this be a voice of no regret
