Beauty of the Spirit

by

Marilyn Ferguson ©2003

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 last 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.
