That's What Matters Lyrics - Rebecca St. James

I read about this guy once 

He seemed to own the earth 

As far as big shots go 

And people in the know, well 

He was definitely top of the list 

Anything he wanted, he'd get it 

Society's dream, had lots of stuff 

Had lots of money 

But you know what's funny? 

He said, it all was useless 

Meaningless, meaningless 

He said, "Everything is meaningless 

A chase after the wind" 

Don't wish for a better day 

Be glad and use the one you're in 

Fear God and do exactly what He says 

That's what matters, all else fades like the flowers 

Well, he'd tried pleasure 

But there was nothing in that 

He built houses and gardens, and parks 

What good did it do? 

Just got him more depressed 

Meaningless, meaningless 

He said, "Everything is meaningless 

But this is what I learned in all my years" 

Don't wish for a better day 

Be glad and use the one you're in 

Fear God and do exactly what He says 

That's what matters, all else fades like the flowers 

Like the flowers, like the flowers 

Meaningless, meaningless 

He said, "Everything is meaningless 

A chase after the wind" 

Don't wish for a better day 

Be glad and use the one you're in 

Fear God and do exactly what He says 

That's what matters, all else fades away 

Meaningful, meaningful 

Life holds new meaning 

When God becomes the center of it all 

Read about another man once 

He came to save the earth 

You know I got to meet Him, Jesus 

He revolutionized my whole entire life 

He said, "Don't wish for a better day 

And be glad and use the one you're in 

Fear God and do exactly what He says 

That's what matters, all else fades away like the flowers" 

Don't wish for a better day 

Be glad and use the one you're in 

Fear God and do exactly what He says 

That's what really matters, all else fades away 

Don't wish for a better day 

Don't wish, don't wish for a better day 

And fear God and do exactly what He says 

That's what matter
