God-Given Beauty

My beauty in God is found

The opinions of the world don't get me down

I don't wear the latest fashion

For finding beauty in God is my passion

 

I won't mask my face with color or shine

I'd rather claim God's beauty as mine

I don't fit in a size zero dress

But this causes me no stress

 

To what my outside in this world amounts

Holds no bearing on my inside where it truly counts

I'm not afraid of the mirror

Because in my head a verse I hear

 

It tells me God knit me together in my mother's womb

By remembering this I am leaving the Devil no room

To enter my life where beauty is concerned

Away from the world's standards I've turned

 

Why should I place any value on what people say

When I know God made me to look this way

My eyes are brown; my hair is red

God knows the number of which cover my head

 

I'm a social butterfly

And I don't have to ask why

God-given beauty isn't hard to find

You just have to weigh the options in your mind

 

The world's standards are no match for me

When I look to God to find true beauty
