McCartney
"Let It Be" is a song written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon/McCartney), released by The Beatles as a single in March 1970 and later the same year as the title track of their album Let It Be
John Denver included a version of "Let It Be" on his 1971 album Poems, Prayers, and Promises.

Paul McCartney and John Lennon of the Beatles wrote "Let it Be." The "Mother Mary" to whom Paul refers in the song is actually Paul's mother, not Mary, the Mother of Jesus. Denver totally swiped that song from the Beatles!

It was John & Paul of the Beatles, not John Denver.

I would bet that John Denver`s version includes the Lennon/mCcartney credits if not then that is swiping! But I am sure it is.
