From the recording So Strong
Lyrics
You are measuring success by the wrong things
It’s not in the money or in the praise you receive
It’s in the way you are faithful to your wildest dreams
You are measuring success by the wrong things
You are measuring your beauty by the wrong things
It’s not what you look like or what others might see
It’s in the way you love, it’s in the joy you bring
You are measuring your beauty by the wrong things
And baby I know how you wake up some days
You look at the world and you can’t see your place
When it feels like the whole world is measuring you
There’s only one thing you can do
Darling, stay true
You are measuring your worth by the wrong things
It’s not what you own or how high you can reach
It’s in the way you are kind, it’s in the song your heart sings
You are measuring your worth by the wrong things
Stay true, stay true, darling stay true
Stay true, stay true, to your own heart stay true
When it feels like the whole world is measuring you
There’s only one thing you can do
Yeah, when it feels like the whole world is measuring you
There’s only one thing you can do
Darling, stay true
Darling, stay true
Darling, stay true
