Lyrics: When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom Let it be And in my hour of darkness She is standing right in front of me Speaking words of wisdom Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom (Words of wisdom) Let it be
And when the broken-hearted people Living in the world agree There will be an answer Let it be For though they may be parted There is still a chance that they will see There will be an answer Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be There will be an answer Let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom (Whisper words of wisdom) Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom (Whisper words of wisdom) Let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom (Whisper words of wisdom) Let it be
And when the night is cloudy There is still a light that shines on me Shine until tomorrow Let it be I wake up to the sound of music Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be There will be an answer Let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, leave it alone, let it be Whisper words of wisdom Let it be
*******************
An icon of 20th and 21st century music, the voice of the civil rights movement, and the undisputed Queen of Soul—there is only one Aretha Franklin. In her incredible six-decade career, Aretha evolved from teenage gospel star to reigning pop and R&B diva, recording classics like “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools”, “Think” (lyrics by Aretha Franklin), definitive versions of the songs “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer”, and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.” Altogether, 112 of her singles reached the charts, with 20 No. 1 R&B singles, the most ever by a female artist. She won 18 Grammy Awards (including the first eight trophies for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance) and, out of recognition for her for indelible contribution to American music and culture, received both the Presidential Medal Of Freedom and a Pulitzer Prize.
