Because God Said So

Because God Said So

As I look at my reflection
I sometimes don’t like what I see
I wince here and there
And wonder how this could be

I grimace as I notice
My imperfections, every one
I want to see a reflection
That’s as beautiful as the Son

For God created me
With splendor on His mind
He sees a priceless treasure
A jewel for me to find

He wants for me to notice
The deep inner me
Not just the reflection -
The things I don’t like to see

The Spirit whispered so gently
The truth I need to know -
Apparently I am beautiful
Because God said so
