BEAUTY LIES WITHIN
scroll down then up for midi to play
She said, I want to be beautiful
He whispered in her ear
The beauty within yourself is there
Right where you can find it dear
For pretty is as pretty does
If your not beautiful inside
Surely you are lost somehow
What happened then to pride
So much beauty lies within
That some forget it's there
Other's see it; know somehow
That your just not aware
God gives so many gifts
We should have such pride
Some show on the surface
Yet some are tucked inside
You can see one's beauty
By looking in their eyes
For some reason, God must know
There they are not disguised
The eyes are windows to the soul
So let me go on in and see
Just what it's like - your beauty
For you mean that much to me
You must pass the beauty on
She heard him whisper too
Love is only love if shared
You must give all of you
She listened as he spoke to her
Took the words and placed with care
Right inside the heart of her
Then thanked him in a heartfelt prayer
