What Matters
It should not matter who they are
Or what it is they do
Treat each person just the same
As you want treated too
It matters not the car they drive
Or the color of their skin
Don't count how many things they have
Or wonder where they live
Never let worth alone
Decide the way they're viewed
Don't judge the cover of their book
Make a chapter just for you
Each new person that you meet
Has a story all their own
Give them just a chance to shine
And watch each person grow
It should not matter who they are
Or what it is they do
Treat each person just the same
As you want treated too
Carl Joseph Roberts
It should not matter who they are
Or what it is they do
Treat each person just the same
As you want treated too
It matters not the car they drive
Or the color of their skin
Don't count how many things they have
Or wonder where they live
Never let worth alone
Decide the way they're viewed
Don't judge the cover of their book
Make a chapter just for you
Each new person that you meet
Has a story all their own
Give them just a chance to shine
And watch each person grow
It should not matter who they are
Or what it is they do
Treat each person just the same
As you want treated too
