All of the dreams that haven't come true And all of the hurt that happened to you It matters, I hope you know it matters
You felt the pain of a bitter defeat Where the weight of the grief is more bitter than sweet It matters, I'm telling you it matters
[Chorus:] To the one who spoke and set the sun ablaze To the one who stopped the storm and walked the waves To the one who took the tree so He could say You matter, I hope you know you matter
I know it's not easy, not saying it's fair But close as a prayer somebody cares You're a treasure, I hope you know you're treasured
So hold your head high, wait for the dawn Keep hanging on, your sadness will turn into laughter Watch it turn into laughter, yeah
[Chorus]
You matter, heaven knows you matter
Let the water spill from your eyes Let it wash the wounds of those lies Oh, let the water spill from your eyes All that you are, all that you’ll be Someone put the beat in your heart so that you’ll see You matter
[Chorus]
You matter, heaven knows you matter You matter, I hope you know you matter You matter, heaven knows you matter
