One Child Matters
by Aaron Crider

Album: The Change

Little Suan plays in the river
Running through Cambodia
Where her mother washes clothes
And her father sails the fishing boat
She loves her sister and her brother
And she wants to learn read
But she works most every day
And she's grateful
When there's rice enough to eat

(Ch)
One Child matters
Under heaven
You can hear her laughter rising to the sky
One child is waiting
One child is praying
You can to see the tears of hope in her eyes
One child matters to Jesus
May one child matter to me
Matter to me

(V2)
Tabansi sings in the choir
At an orphanage in Swaziland
Oh he tries to be brave
Still he cries at the memory of her face
The virus took away his mother
But he's determined to survive
Sometimes it's hard to be strong
Still he joins the song
It's good to be alive

(Ch2)
One Child matters
Under heaven
You can hear his laughter rising to the sky
One child is waiting
One child is praying
You can to see the tears of hope in his eyes
One child matters to Jesus
May one child matter to me

(Bridge)
Like the shepherd who searches
Refusing to sleep
Rejoicing as he carries home one sheep
Jesus keeps in his heart
Every boy, every girl
All the precious children
In the world

(Ch3)
One Child matters
Under heaven
You can hear her laughter rising to the sky
One child is waiting
One child is praying
You can to see the tears of hope in her eyes
One Child matters
Under heaven
You can hear his laughter rising to the sky
One child is waiting
One child is praying
You can to see the tears of hope in his eyes
One child matters to Jesus
May one child matter to me
Matter to me
