John Denver was born with the name Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. on Dec. 31, 1943, in Roswell, N.M. One of America's most popular performers in the '70s, Denver's rise to fame began when he was "discovered" in a Los Angeles nightclub. He initially joined the Back Porch Majority, a nursery group for the renowned New Christy Minstrels, but, tiring of his role there, he left for the Chad Mitchell Trio where he forged a reputation as a talented songwriter.

Anthem - Revelation Lyrics
John Denver
This song was first released on the take me to tomorrow album. it is the only album it has been released on.
See the sun rise
Open up your eyes
Today is the very first day
Watch the morning come
Now the night is gone
Yesterdays so very far away
Trouble you get out of my sight
You know I cant look at you
When the sun is so bright
You know everythings coming together now cant you see
And I live my life in celebration
That Ive got a life to live
And I sing my song in revelation
That Ive got a song that I can give to you
And you know I do
La la la
I was blind now I can see
You know Im just learning how it feels to be free
You know I never really knew just what it could be
Before
And I live my life in celebration
That Ive got a life to live
And I sing my song in revelation
That Ive got a song that I can give to you
And you know I do
And you know its true
La la la
