G Major
Video: In Key of G Major (great for children, recorders, and guitars). Video shows scenic images while children sing through the first verse once. There is a pause and invitation to sing. The accompaniment is then played, (folksy, piano, with rhythm section), while lyrics to verse one are shown.

Video: shows lyrics with scenic images, (visual clarity is lacking) The song is sung in F Major, which is one of the best keys for children to be singing this song. (G Major is good too and easier for recorder playing).
