"The Beauty of Beauty (song/poem)" Mon Aug-06-07 07:38 PM by ms mimi diva
for my many sisters who have experienced abuse
This one came to me in a dream.....
Verse i.
You’re standing here And you’re in so much pain Wondering if He’s near You’re calling out His name The ones who were 'sposed to protect you Used and rejected you They didn’t believe the truth was true But I know God was keeping you
Chorus: Cause It's al--right Not to be ashamed Beauty ain’t ashamed to know her name Know you’re not to blame Because it’s al--right Don't be ashamed He will take away/all your pain Know you’re not to blame soloist/choir
verse ii. And now you’re on your knees Wondering what to do Your hands are outstretched to Him Praying that He’ll hear you The ones who were 'sposed to protect you Used and rejected you They didn’t believe the truth was true But I know God was keeping you
Cause It's al--right Don't be ashamed Beauty ain’t ashamed to know her name Know you’re not to blame Because it’s al--right Don't be ashamed He will take away/all your pain Know you’re not to blame
Come gently lost passenger, Because this is your stop You wandered around the baggage area Looking for a departure but struggling to find your way With a one way ticket in hand to a epic struggle that You didn’t ask for, and didn’t own
But there is a flight that will take you home
Time to take your name back, Reclaim the freedom in the spring of your fall If its peace you seek then don’t retreat fall before his mercy seat Kiss the soles of his holy feet
A deliverer of beauty lost A heavy cost Of innocence stolen From her mother land So many nights you were a nomad in your own soul Know the savior heals and holds He alone provides the aching spirit with The comfort it seeks
Be released.
The beauty of beauty Is that no matter what they did You can live without shame Standing on the savior’s name
This is your stop, lost passenger There is a land where the wars inside your mind Are subjected to treaties And the battlefields of your body cease to rage And in the desolate desert soul, He brings a spring of peace Talitha cumi! Come child, it’s alright Come child, it’s alright Hush child, it’s alright
The only way through darkness, is light.
chorus
Cause It's al--right Not to be ashamed Beauty ain’t ashamed to know her name Know you’re not to blame Because it’s al--right don't be ashamed He will take away/all your pain Know you’re not to blame
