~Beauty Of The Spirit~
~~~
Of all the wonders in this world There's beauty in the soul
Precious as the hands of time An essence, pure and whole.
Some will go for beauty's grace In flowing locks of hair
But it will lose its luster soon When the spirit isn't there.
Others look to faces, young In worldly magazines
But they are full of sinful traps Look to the soul, unseen.
There's beauty in the spirit Beyond this flesh that dies
A pretty face will fade away But one in Christ will rise.
There's treasure in the soul, my friend It lasts throughout all time
The beauty never fades away Nor wilts upon the vine.
Enduring as the sword of truth That dwells in Beulah land
The flaming torch, God's light that shines Within the breast of man.
