Your beauty is all around us.
Your holy kiss sparks the dawn.
Your breath holds the birds in flight.
Your hand unfurls every flower.
Your heartbeat pounds the rhythm of the surf.
Your beauty is all around us.
The trees stand tall to wave in praise.
Every man, woman, and child bears your name.
Life begins anew each Spring without fail.
So too, the heart of man blossoms in Your hand.
Your beauty is all around us.
Ten perfect toes, ten wiggly fingers.
A human’s enormous personality begins with such helplessness.
Mom’s and Dad’s nurture and love self-sacrificially,
bearing the image of a Heavenly Father loving His Son.
Your beauty is all around us.
Your love never changes, constant and enduring.
Grace extended from the unlikeliest of hands;
a human man’s, callused by both work and life incarnate,
bruised and rejected, extending eternally.
Your beauty is all around us.
Unconventional beauty, love pouring forth from scars,
returning again, knowing the kick will come to the ribs,
facing rejection, defying rationality,
risking it all so we can see…
YOUR BEAUTY ALL AROUND US.
