Lyrics:
I’ve seen the northern lights
The British countryside
Every single southern college town
Sat with important men
And felt like one of them
Stood at Cypress in between the clouds
Thought I'd seen all there is to see
Spent all this time chasing my dreams
But none of them came true till you were here with me
It’s a wonderful world filled with fabulous things
I'd trade it all away to have you here with me
It’s a wonderful world
It’s a wonderful world
I’ve taken medicine
I bought an ottoman
I got a bigger house with bigger trees
I'm getting better at not blaming mom and dad
I'm trying to figure out what it all means
I thought that I'd done all the right things
I spent all this time building a dream
But none of it came true till you were here with me
It’s a wonderful world filled with fabulous things
I'd trade it all away to have you here with me
It's a wonderful world
It's a wonderful world
It's a wonderful world
It's a wonderful world
I spent all this time chasing a dream
But none of it was true until you were here with me
It’s a wonderful world filled with fabulous things
I'd trade them all away to have you here with me
I'd trade them all away to have you here with me
#BenRector #WonderfulWorld #TheJoyOfMusic
Dad of 4, 2 boys, 2 girls, one named Jane.
It really is a wonderful world.
Thanks Ben.
dang!! We’re getting treated over and over again yall. Ben keeps delivering singles that are bops, but also hitting the heart. Man that lyrics on verse 2 about learning not to blame mom and dad…wow!!
I’m not crying, you’re crying!!
As a father of three, including two little girls...nailed it. Well done, Ben
Literally me 21 months ago what have thought this was cheesy.... and now I'm crying.
Sad people nowadays thinking that a career will make them happy, ben did nail it.
Ben, you have no idea how much your music helps me. I am so grateful. Don't ever stop making new music.
Ditto!
I smiled. I cried. I smiled again. This song is more than a banger or a bop. I don’t think the word to describe it even exists yet.
As a dad of 3 girls of similar age to your little Jane this song resonates hard with me. I can have the worst day and just one hug from them makes me happy and forget everything I may be dealing with at the time. Sure there are frustrating times with them, but they make me happier than anything this world could offer me.
Love the song, Ben!
.
Nailed it Ben! Always entertaining, always heart warming, always identify with it. You’re a good dad.
Watching right now with 3 of your biggest littlest fans! We took the whole family to see you in Houston and had a blast! My 5 year old son was so bummed that we couldn’t just go see Ben Rector perform every weekend and I had to explain to him how touring works. 😅 Thank you for the music and I hope you stop by again soon!
HAHA have had to have the same convo here 🤣
Same!
He has such a great voice.
The meaning behind all your songs warm my heart. Thank you for sharing the important things with us ❤️
A banger. It’s a wonderful world with your music in it.
Ben Rector, you have to be one of the most creative people I have come across in a while. So glad I found you and your music! I produce corporate videos for Vantage Health Plan and take a break from time to time to listen and watch your videos! So inspiring! Thank you, sir! Phillip Brooks
❤️
❤
Ben, you’re just a gift man. Grateful for the spirit with which your write and sing. It speaks to me on so many levels. You’re a light my friend.
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Left a corporate career making buckets of money to be a stay at home dad to our three little ones. So worth it.
This gave me the feels! Thanks Ben. As a father of a young girl, I am happily trading the world in for a better life too.
This was absolutely delightful in every way.
Another home run!
How is it possible to never miss on a song!! Awesome Ben!
I tell my 3 little girls every night as I tuck them in with a prayer and kiss on the forehead, "I love you more than everything! If I owned every home, pretty mountain, ski hill, boat, fancy car, restaurant, lake, river, (the list keeps going)... I would give them all away just to have you."
Kids are the best. The worth of souls is beyond our comprehension.
Great song!
Ben rector is so fantastic indeed,his songs are Magical 🙏
🔥💙And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying: “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man, and He will dwell with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them as their God. ‘ He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,’ and there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the former things have passed away.” And the One seated on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” Then He said, “Write this down, for these words are faithful and true.” IT IS WRITTEN. Amen and Amen. 💙🔥
More Wes Anderson influence! Love it :)
LOVE LOVE LOVE this song… and another cute video! Thank you, Ben!!! ❤
Love this! You know you’ve made it when you have your very own puppet that looks like you🤩 keep it up Ben!
Tonight I took my girls to Mexican for a father daughter date and was thinking about how special of a moment it was. Then got home to see this notification had been uploaded. Hitting the feels, Ben! Keep it up!
Thank you Ben!
Ben! Your heart is 2 sizes bigger than the average human. I am so thankful that you continue to share your gift with the world. We need it so desperately. ♥️
Ben Rector developing a strong muppet/puppet game was not on my 2022 bingo card.
As a dad I’m not crying you are! I swear every time you drop a new song I have a new favorite song.
the sweetest 💕
Adorable.
Love the production on this song. Also, is puppet Ben’s hair actual Ben’s hair? Too real not to be.
love this music video
Oh my gosh what a sweet and wholesome video
My Daughter is 11 months old and this is her favorite music video she is here singing along in baby babble when it is played.
Absolutely amazing. You made the world a better place with this one.
Amen!
I love everything about this! You’ve done it again! 👏🏻👏🏻
Beautiful! 🥹❤️
exactly what we needed! I've been listening to "Joy" daily for the entirety of 2022. Please schedule a date in Cleveland soon!
Yes, what a wonderful world and also a wonderful song! Ty. ❤ 🙏🏼 💗 Night.
Music the world needs now more than ever.
By request of my daughter, we need more puppet, Ben. She watched this video several times because, she wanted to see the girl and the puppet lol. Great work! Still remember the dumpster concert as the best show you ever put on! Thanks for that great memory!
Love this so much!! Puppet Jane❤
💗💗💗
My heart just shattered into a million pieces 🥹❤️
Wonderfully done! I hope the puppet makes it out on tour!
not gonna lie, your my favorite artist right now. you always write songs I want to listen to.😄
❤❤❤❤❤
LOVE THIS!!! What a cute song and video!!!
This song just topped my "Feel Good" playlist! Nothing better in my life than becoming a "Dada".
❤❤❤❤
Goosebumps!! Love your music!
I never had any children; this song makes me see what I might have missed. It seems to me that this man can unearth feelings we have within ourselves.
It doesn't stop here. The men who drive me places, Duo, Love like this, Sunday etc all have the effect of showing the ordinary to be extraordinary.
Love your work Ben. We all do.
The point of the song is not about having children per se, albeit the video is. The message of the song is how it feels to live life FOR someone you love, that naturally loves you back for having you loving them.
❤
As a parent I love this so much! Another great hit! ❤
after you’ve digested the brilliance of the song & video, go back and watch the video again and ask yourself “how did they achieve the production for puppet Ben to canoe and walk across the log without revealing the puppeteer?” 🤯
WOW SO GOOD
Could not love this more!! Ben throwing out 🔥 left and right!
Great song and video
Absolutely incredible. The video, the songwriting and the production of the song.
That 19 second intro was so perfect and powerful I felt it😌
Immediately adding to my playlists.
Where is this filmed? So beautiful
Ben! What a great song! You keep making my day, all day, everyday! Love your song, love your concerts, love you! Thanks for the treat, have a blessed life, and Jane is so beautiful. Your a lucky man. Your wife is gorgeous, by the way! I look up stuff about you all the time. Your a good man, and make incredible music. Lately all the music the people my age (11) listen to is a bunch of inappropriate things, but my interest in music is your music! It has not only a good beat, but your words touch people in a beautiful way! You always make my day, and your music has gotten me through incredibly tough things! You deserve more credit for your music! I love it so much, I listen to you everyday. Great new songs lately!
That is such a beautiful comment. I hope the man himself reads it. He would be over the moon.
This song is so catchy and easy to sing a long with , the beat and melody is just so calming! Been listening to this lately when I have my late night bike rides alone!
Happy and chill like Daughter or Best is Yet to Come, BUT THAT BANJO🤩!! I haven’t heard that folksy bluegrass vibe sense Fear and I LOVE IT THANK YOU you are the best!
This is awesome!! I love that Jane got “top billing” in the credits.💖
So cute!!
If he auditions, he can get into the Muppet Show
North Idaho!!!
You are extremely talented. Seeing you in concert was amazing.
#27 let’s go!!
🎉🎉🎉let’s goooo
I saw your song in fb stories . Now I have a new favorite artist 😊
That’s beautiful man 🖤
Love this🎉
An amazing album, and now 2 absolute banger singles, all in one year? Ben, you're just spoiling us fans at this point
Whatever feeling you were going for here, I feel it
LOVE THIS!! Thank you!!!❤
BOP

Welp, that is about the most happy and sweet video ever. I 100% thought it was about a woman...THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER.
Love this so much! Love all you do! Also, is there a person swimming under the canoe to make the puppet sing in the canoe? If so, that's amazing!
It’s so beautiful, Ben!
Lake Pend Oreille from up by Schweitzer. Beautiful setting and beautiful song! Nice one Ben...
Brilliant, I felt the warmth for sure
That puppet has fantastic hair I’ve got to say!
This was so beautiful!!!!!! ❤
