No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know I'll love forever
I know no matter what
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would hear God say
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
And I will keep you safe and strong
And shelter from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born
No matter who they follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies are blue
No matter what the end is
My life began with you
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know, I know
I know this love's forever
That's all that matters now
No matter what
No, no matter (no no matter what)
No, no matter (no no matter what)
No, no matter, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
No, no matter, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
No, no matter, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
No, no matter, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
And no, no matter what, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
And no, no matter what, that's all that matters to me
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know I'll love forever
I know no matter what
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would hear God say
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
And I will keep you safe and strong
And shelter from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born
No matter who they follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies are blue
No matter what the end is
My life began with you
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know, I know
I know this love's forever
That's all that matters now
No matter what
No, no matter (no no matter what)
No, no matter (no no matter what)
No, no matter, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
No, no matter, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
No, no matter, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
No, no matter, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
And no, no matter what, that's all that matters to me (no no matter what)
And no, no matter what, that's all that matters to me

It's about innocence, corruption and love. I think it has to be seen as religious. The musical is based on the 1960s film Whistle Down The Wind. I've never seen the musical but remember the film. It might seem a bit dated now but the last time I saw it still had a magical quality. The story is about a criminal (corruption) on the run from the police. He's wounded and holes up in a barn where some kids find him. In their innocence they're convinced he's Jesus and he plays a long with this. Jesus says something in the Bible like unless you become like a child you can never enter the Kingdom of heaven and somehow the simplistic, trusting love of these kids touches the hardened criminal and somehow he finds the love within himself. In the film he's led away handcuffed at the end and looks back at the kids with a sort of awe, they've shown him something he'd long forgotten or never knew, His own innocence. The song fits that perfectly.
