Verse 1
********
You are exactly what
I'd thought
you'd be lovely.
A child of Father's;
in a body little more
expressed and mature.
|
Verse 2
********
Thus all Father's children
when they are babies
are wonderful to see;
to hold, to love.
|
Verse 3
********
It's only when
we are older;
there seems to be
a sense of difference
between who we are
and what we see.
|
Verse 4
********
So when you ask me
are we what
you expected,
what more can I say
but of course?
|
Verse 5
********
You see Father
made us all
in his image.
Now granted
some of us are tall
and some short;
some of us are hairy
while some are bald;
some are slender
while some of us
well . . .
|
Verse 6
********
But still we are all
Father's children
and therefore lovely
to behold just now.
|
Verse 7
********
For beauty comes
from deep within
from the center
of our beings;
it is the who we are
and as children
which we are
admonished
to become;
we are lovely
to the eye
to behold.
|
Verse 8
********
We've matured
a little more;
while the outside
seems a little
worn and torn;
it is on the inside
we are warm
within the Master's;
even Heavenly Father's
gentle touch.
