It matters that the world knowsWe must celebrate the gift of life
Everyday in some way
We must always remember
To play after every stormAll children are truly blessed
With the innocent gifts of gentleness
Trust and compassion
To guide the wisdom of the grown-upsWe all have a song in our heart
That inspires us in good times, in hard times
If we take the time to listenIt matters, it matters
Oh, it matters that the world knowsOur senses help discover
The hidden and non-hidden
Enchantment in life
If we use themWe must carefully choose
Our words and wants
Or we could forever hurt others
With these dangerous weaponsStrength and value of all things created
Must be measured by character and commitment
Rather than by might and by wealthIt matters, it matters
Oh, it matters that the world knowsWe must heed the lessons of every day life
Through the celebration of children
And heart, songs, senses and words
Or we could lose in our journey to the futureIt matters, it mattersA person by my name and being existed
With a strong spirit and an eternal mindset
To become a peacemaker for all
By sharing the things that really matter
