I miss his gift....he really believed in the possibility of tomorrow...through each other..through the planet God gave us...there is none like him....and never will be.
I was so lucky to see John Denver when he came to Australia..beautiful voice, everyone adored him. ..he is the best entertainer I have ever seen..will never forget him.❤
We need John Denver more than ever!! His music United us in a way we need so very much in our World Today And For All Time!!! God bless you dear John, you gave us so much and I will miss you forever. Love, Me
He was the best performer of all time, I miss him singing so much. You were loved John Denver and this rare song is what you stood for. God Bless and soar high!
John Denver was a musical genius. He wrote so many breathtaking songs. This song ' Healing Time On Earth ' is just beautiful. John Denver sang from his heart and soul. x
In 1972 I moved from Michigan to New York and was distraught at having to leave the woods and lakes that I loved so much. John Denver was my connection back to all that I loved. My son recently moved to Golden Colorado and I just returned from a 5 day trip to visit him and we went fishing up in the high Alpine lakes and streams that I’d heard JD sing about and his lyrics were alive within me. So ironic that my sister should send me this song today after my return to Long Island. JD has been a part of my life and my love of nature for 54 years. A true gift. Thank you JD.
Every song, John Denver sang, was a tribute to Mother Earth. And every one of his songs was meant to be healing in itself. He was a true lover of nature and in his music (in my opinion) he tried to convey the healing power of Life ... Mother Earth ... Nature. Bless you John.
OMG, how gifted this man was!! So magical...the amazing words that come out of his soul so effortlessly in such a soothing melody and tone - just so genuine and pure...and sublime!! His love for our nature is indisputable and no one has ever dedicated their songs to mother earth like him!! It might take a few more years for the world to understand how much our generation and the future generations are gonna miss this gifted man!! RIP John!!
John has always been an inspiration and when times were dark and lonely his songs got me through. When he passed I was so broken hearted I listen to his songs for days and watched every video I could find of him. I love this song it gave me the feeling that God really wrote the song and used John to sing it. God bless you John you will always be in my heart.
I was fortunate enough to hear John Denver sing this live in concert in Austin, Texas just 8 days before he died. I had never heard it before and was brought to tears. It was magical. I only wish it were recorded so more people could hear it. We miss you, John!
@@eamgarcia8058 You're right. John will live forever in our hearts and souls, in his music and in all the incredible work he did to improve this world. Whether it was his fight to end hunger, to protect the environment or end war, his legacy lives on.
peace....that has always been his message...such a beautiful song of peace since this difficult election time...we need peace...and he has the capacity to heal us...rest, relax...and turn on John Denver's music...all will be alright...we should listen to our musicians...they touch our 'souls'... and give us peace... it is now the...healing time...
I MISS YOU JOHN.. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE FANTASTIC MUSIC YOU WROTE AND SANG THAT TELLS SO MANY STORIES.. I CLOSE MY EYES AND LISTEN TO REAL MUSIC ... GOD BLESS YOU... REST IN PEACE MY FRIEND....XOXO
Such a beautiful song. It is a song that is very needed for our country right now. When our country is in such a mess, this song needs to be played again and again, and all people need to listen to EVERY work. John was a talent that ahead of every artist of his time. A very tragic loss. I will miss him greatly. Rest In Peace John Denver. Your music is still Revelation today.
Now after this Covid 19 maybe people will respect the Earth and look after it instead of abusing it and look after the seas and animals as John would have wished, what a great man the World had in John Denver, I know this man is in the heaven of heavens.
I have loved John Denver and his songs. And I like how he speak. I really felt his songs, can touch my heart... Honestly, all his songs was beautiful.. This song reflects nowadays..
On this the anniversary of your leaving us, thinking I wish you were still here but also thinking glad that you aren't. There of us though that are still here that are trying to carry on the message you were trying to give us through your music and compassion for mother earth and humanity.
I was there...the story in the introduction was true... I was working backstage that day from early morning until concert...he was literally writing it that day. Amazing and heart felt.
I got to see John Denver at the Forum in Southern California, then twice in Northern California, and the last time in Spokane Washington. Just a few years before his death. What an amazing singer song writer. RIP JOHN.
I was there too... I volunteered 4 years at Choices... What a privilege! The year Kenny Loggins was there, I was managing the green room. I thought, OH gee... another rock star. (BTW... I never considered John Denver in 'THAT' category...) I was wrong... Kenny Loggins was present and real - As he told me he was terrified as he was always safe behind his guitar and the music. We wanted him to talk about himself. He had never done that! I pushed him out and ran around to sit in the audience. He was authentic and real. I have a video of it. I rushed back as he came off stage... He walked up to me and took my face in his hands and said, "I just kept looking at you! And the words you said about taking the mask off... That's what people want to see and hear." And he gently kissed both my cheeks...
Speaks volumes of how Mother Earth speaks through us and encourages us to care for this beautiful planet she has in trusted-into our care, as well to care for each other. From Mother Earths heart to Johns pen. Beautiful!
I have heard this once before and it sends goosebumps up my spine. The consummate singer and songwriter. And this gets dislikes. Some people don't have a life. One of my favourite entertainers of all time.
John was a gift who shared his talent and love for all living beings on our Mother earth. Gone too soon, he is still missed Thanks for sharing this beautiful song of his.❤
Stars, sun, oceans, mountains-Nature is so important to John Denver and it should be this Earth month and all the time. Listen to the turning of seasons. This song seems to me the essence of what it means to be present with nature. A song that wanted to express itself when it was ready-let's always appreciate the gifts our environment gives us.
I see that this was posted 4 1/2 years ago. So good to see that people are finding it in these changing times and being comforted. I had never heard the song and love it like all the others. His voice was golden.
Talented beyond all explanation. John Denver's ability to make words and thought flow is magical. We need another John Denver (although that can never be) right now! WILL NEVER STOP LOVING THIS MUSIC, THOUGHT, AND INSPIRATION.
Truly miss John Denver's presence in music...thankful also to have TH-cam to keep his music alive within my home and my soul! Rest eternally in His peace, Mr. Denver.
It is now July 2017, and the small town of Mariposa, California (near Yosemite) has suffered a horrific fire. 63 houses so far have been destroyed. The entire town was evacuated, there was no power and (we are so rural) no communications about where the fire was. Someone posted this song today, and so I sent to the townspeople as a welcome home. It is making a beautiful difference. Thank you.
Belated response- do you live there, too? Was your home ok? I know there have been so many fires in Calif. I was in Santa Rosa, in Sept. 2017, before the fires there. I came back home to Washington in time. But sadly, so many didn't have that luxury.
Let the mountains talk, let the river run There is wisdom here, there is much to learn There is much to know, much to understand In this healing time all across the land You have heard my songs, oh so many years You have laughed with me, washed away my tears You have shared my joy, you have felt my pain In this healing time, walk with me again Through these darker days on this narrow line Help me find my way, help me see the signs I am not afraid, I am not alone You have taught me well, you have brought me home Let the mountain speak, let the rivers run As the world awakes to the rising sun In each brand new day, in our own rebirth In this healing time on our Mother Earth Let the mountains talk, let the rivers run There is wisdom here, there’s so much to learn In each brand new day, in our own rebirth In this healing time for our Mother Earth In each brand new day, in our own rebirth In this healing time, here on Mother Eart
+Meara Ginsberg Meara, thanks a million for taking the trouble to write out the lyrics to this lovely song. I've loved John's music for the past ...44 years and to find a new one is just a treasure. Thanks once more.
Wonderful to hear this amazing visionary speak so beautifully about the visionary process and it's wonderful to see him create, open-hearted, in real time, as it should be, as WE should be. John Denver may your spirit be with us, guide us - surely this is a time when we need you more than ever.
Such a beautiful song in its birth, conveyed with such delicate tenderness and feeling through Johns captive voice. God, I miss the guy. Got most of his records, audio tapes, c/ds, dvd's. Even quite a few video tapes which i cant play any more. His music lives on tho👍x jimmy Liverpool England.
Yes I agree John had a beautiful voice , and a beautiful soul , I have to weep when listening to him ,even now after all these years , so glad I got to see him twice in Britain , he still has loyal fans who appreciate his uniqueness , I will always love this man for his voice and his love of nature .💚
Totally blessed to have seen JD live in concert five times, including his last ever concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London in April 1997. Sadly a few short months later he was sadly taken from us all. R.I.P. Great man thank you for the memories.❤️
every time i hear this song and it's story i get chills! the story alone is amazing! he has no idea how amazing he was and how important his music was and how it spoke to people and still does! i was lucky enough to see him in concert a few times and always gave a good show! this song is classic john denver and proof you simply cannot rush the creative process it wasn't ready to be written by yet, but some how that night bit by bit he did it!!! the man upstairs knew would be needing a song to help us heal and chose the right person to bring it to us. his music continues to give us pleasure, and wisdom if only we care to listen. RIP JOHN DENVER YOU ARE MISSED A LOT!
What a blessing this song is!!! And so beautifully sung. Oh my God..the world should hear it today. So glad I stumbled on this. THANK YOU . Appreciation from South Africa.
This song is absolutely beautiful. And for him to sing a song for the first time and only make one mis-step with the words reminds me of how intelligent he obviously was. I was always amazed that he could stand up and sing for 2 hours and he so very rarely ever mucked up the words. If you ask most musicians that is not an easy feat. Bless you JD, you always make my heart sing.
That was great. I've heard it many times but never saw it before. I'm still impressed with this guy after all these years. Is there anyone left today that is as dedicated to Earth's environment as this man was?
I stumbled on this clip yesterday for the first time and immediately fell in love with it and the meaningful lyrics, John's simple guitar picking and of course that warm colourful tone of his voice. A very special song and I appreciate that it has been posted for the rest of us to enjoy. Heartfelt thanks.
A dear friend sent me this link for my birthday this month---what a wonderful gift! I had never heard it but I love it! So beautiful! I still cry whenever I listen to him; such a loss! I love him still!
Thank you so much Misha Nay!! I heard John sing live in San Diego after he'd returned from Russia I was blown away by the power and also tenderness in his singing. He included a few of his songs in Ruddian. Then I happened to be eating at the Chart House in Monterey just two days befor he crashed into the bay. I will never forget him and I believe Annie won't either. Just guessing there. Elizabeth Gabber
Wow. never heard this at all!! A truly gifted man.. I have been a fan for 40+ years. (Yikes!) His was the first concert I EVER went to at about 17! This is just so lovely..
OH! I found this on youtube in 2008 and it was removed. I have been searching for it ever since! This is such a fantastic song and the video is truly capturing John's character. This is one of a kind. Thank you for posting.
A friend posted this on Facebook, and I stumbled upon it. It was very emotional for me as I am in my own healing time. I lost my husband of nearly 42 years, just over a month ago. Needless to say, these words hit me hard. They are as appropriate for the loss of as loved one, as they are for our concern for Mother Earth. John Denver was one of my favorite singer/songwriters, and I have all of his music...except this one. Thank you John for your talent, caring and love of this land. You, of course, were gone way too soon, but may we all learn from your words...before it is too late.
my very favorite segment of this song are these wonderful & inspirational lyrics and beautiful melody & vocal crescendo, that is the heart & the pure talent & genius of JD: 4:28-5:15 In this Healing Time.. Walk with me again.. Through these darker days.. On this narrow line.. ❤❤Help me find my way.. Help me see the signs.. I am not afraid.. I am not alone.. You have taught me well.. You have brought me home ❣❣ ❤❤ Thn-q SDo 💕💞😍💓❣❣
I was at this Windstar Symposium when he performed this rare song. He also performed another song, Wandering Soul, at this Windstar Symposium which is my absolute favorite of John Denver's songs and it was never published as well. The intro to the song is exactly as he did it live...I actually have the cassette tape of that Windstar Symposium.
I was there too... I volunteered 4 years at Choices... What a privilege! The year Kenny Loggins was there, I was managing the green room. I thought, OH gee... another rock star. (BTW... I never considered John Denver in 'THAT' category...) I was wrong... Kenny Loggins was present and real - As he told me he was terrified as he was always safe behind his guitar and the music.

That's what people want to see and hear." And he gently kissed both my cheeks...
Beautiful...... I miss you so much, John. Your beautiful soul still shines. None compare to your God given talent. Such peace in the beauty of your voice. Thanks .... 😙

One of the few life regrets I have is never seeing this man perform live. Rest in peace. May your words never be forgotten. Beautiful song.
He was the best performer of all time, I miss him singing so much. You were loved John Denver and this rare song is what you stood for. God Bless and soar high!
Such a beautiful Song for such a troubled world...Thank You John Denver...

Certainly, John would agree that he was an instrument of GOD . . . John said so himself in so many ways.
Just what I needed to hear today!
I sure wish we still John here to speak and sing! Every time I hear him sing I know his loss is far greater than we realized!
amen....
His singing voice is one thing but I could listen to him talk all day
Amen 🙏
What a high-quality person is John Denver!! May he rest in peace and God bless John's family and everyone

At least we have this recording and his commentary on how he wrote it.
@@nashvilletennessee3194 Yes, I'm grateful for those things too!
A lot of bootleg copies out there it can be done

This song is beautiful and should be published. I used to listen to him a lot while growing up and believed he died way before his time.
I MISS YOU JOHN..
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE FANTASTIC MUSIC YOU WROTE AND SANG THAT TELLS SO MANY STORIES..
I CLOSE MY EYES AND LISTEN TO REAL MUSIC ...
GOD BLESS YOU...

I treasure his albums, never heard this before but it's going to be one of my favorites!
He was great. Such personality. Boy do we need this song and more Peace writers.
Timeless words....timeless voice!! A song and singer for a season........
Now after this Covid 19 maybe people will respect the Earth and look after it instead of abusing it and look after the seas and animals as John would have wished, what a great man the World had in John Denver, I know this man is in the heaven of heavens.
Someone shared this today, 3/10/21. I love it. He was one of my all-time favorite entertainers.
I miss you Dad😭
for me this is my new earth anthem in these days of covid 19... thank you John Denver!!!
How beautiful is this! Typical magic from John Denver…..a real treasure who helped me through some difficult and painful times ❤
The heartfelt intelligence of this song is genuinely unsurpassing.

Another day enjoying the voice of John Denver...…..forever a loyal fan...…….sigh....so lovely...
I always notice how his voice became better with the years.
So mellow!
Let the mountains talk, let the river run
There is wisdom here, there is much to learn
There is much to know, much to understand
In this healing time all across the land
You have heard my songs, oh so many years
You have laughed with me, washed away my tears
You have shared my joy, you have felt my pain
In this healing time, walk with me again
Through these darker days on this narrow line
Help me find my way, help me see the signs
I am not afraid, I am not alone
You have taught me well, you have brought me home
Let the mountain speak, let the rivers run
As the world awakes to the rising sun
In each brand new day, in our own rebirth
In this healing time on our Mother Earth
Let the mountains talk, let the rivers run
There is wisdom here, there’s so much to learn
In each brand new day, in our own rebirth
In this healing time for our Mother Earth
In each brand new day, in our own rebirth
In this healing time, here on Mother Eart

Oh this is so beautiful. It still hurts so much when I think about John Denver's death.
Magic from John Denver
His music brought love to my heart and a tear to my eye. He left this world way too soon. This was a beautiful example of his talent.
Such a beautiful song in its birth, conveyed with such delicate tenderness and feeling through Johns captive voice. God, I miss the guy. Got most of his records, audio tapes, c/ds, dvd's. Even quite a few video tapes which i cant play any more. His music lives on tho👍x

Talk about magical....this song is absolutely divinely inspired. Love love love it.
John's presence in this song was truly inspired. Loved so dearly, and so very dearly missed.
This song is absolutely beautiful. And for him to sing a song for the first time and only make one mis-step with the words reminds me of how intelligent he obviously was.

amen
they should really publish it.. speaks to many..especially in the turmoil of today's world. love it.
This takes me back to the days when getting high on life was good enough all by itself because each sunrise held so much promise...
At the time that John Denver was filling up our senses, I was reading a book called Getting High Naturally. A perfect combo.
Boom - right in the heart. Thank you John. Beautiful brother. RIP
Love this video...…….The song is beautiful and his voice wonderful...….John Denver, The Best.....9/11/19
I loved him and his music, miss him dearly.
That was great. I've heard it many times but never saw it before. I'm still impressed with this guy after all these years. Is there anyone left today that is as dedicated to Earth's environment as this man was?
aspenkate .... Aspen Kate ..... You're almost as beautiful as this song ✌😚
I love his music and his humor :) He makes me laugh and cry with emotion in seconds... What a wonderful man ♥

Loved this.....peaceful
Wow. never heard this at all!! A truly gifted man.. I have been a fan for 40+ years. (Yikes!) His was the first concert I EVER went to at about 17! This is just so lovely..
John Denver was an awesome musician. Hope he is getting to play in an Angel Band.
We need some healing time here on Earth these days. Too bad John isn't here today to sing about it. Beautiful song.
OH! I found this on youtube in 2008 and it was removed. I have been searching for it ever since! This is such a fantastic song and the video is truly capturing John's character. This is one of a kind. Thank you for posting.
A friend posted this on Facebook, and I stumbled upon it. It was very emotional for me as I am in my own healing time. I lost my husband of nearly 42 years, just over a month ago. Needless to say, these words hit me hard. They are as appropriate for the loss of as loved one, as they are for our concern for Mother Earth. John Denver was one of my favorite singer/songwriters, and I have all of his music...except this one. Thank you John for your talent, caring and love of this land. You, of course, were gone way too soon, but may we all learn from your words...before it is too late.
This a great song especially right now. thanks John for all your inspirational songs through out your lifetime. Thank you
Beautiful song! Beautiful Man!
Today 20 years we lost this wonderful and amazing man and great singer💔. Tears in my heart but I'm greatful that John have lived💓 💞
my very favorite segment of this song are these wonderful & inspirational lyrics and beautiful melody & vocal crescendo, that is the heart & the pure talent & genius of JD:
4:28-5:15

You have brought me home ❣❣
❤❤ Thn-q SDo 💕💞😍💓❣❣

As always, John Denver at his best, even as he makes up the songs as he goes along, they're always beautiful-!!! :-D
Dianna P. Wood. ....FAR OUT!##
his love for his Music Earth and All of her people still healing us with his words of majestic beauty. Thank You John Miss you!
I was at this Windstar Symposium when he performed this rare song. He also performed another song, Wandering Soul, at this Windstar Symposium which is my absolute favorite of John Denver's songs and it was never published as well. The intro to the song is exactly as he did it live...I actually have the cassette tape of that Windstar Symposium.
Oh, my gosh! What a treasure you have, in that Windstar Symposium tape!
I was there too... I volunteered 4 years at Choices... What a privilege! The year Kenny Loggins was there, I was managing the green room. I thought, OH gee... another rock star. (BTW... I never considered John Denver in 'THAT' category...) I was wrong... Kenny Loggins was present and real - As he told me he was terrified as he was always safe behind his guitar and the music. We wanted him to talk about himself. He had never done that! I pushed him out and ran around to sit in the audience. He was authentic and real. I have a video of it. I rushed back as he came off stage... He walked up to me and took my face in his hands and said, "I just kept looking at you! And the words you said about taking the mask off... That's what people want to see and hear." And he gently kissed both my cheeks...
Any possibility of getting it on YT?
