The Beauty We See

by James Ralston

Every person in this world was
Created to serve and worship God.
Each person was also created to
See the beauty God created in
This world.

Lord, what is beauty?
Is it a feeling, or just something to be seen?
Is it something, that our souls know when we see it?
Or is it something, we look at, and
Just put a feeling, and word to?

There are people who see beauty
Through art. People who see beauty
In color.
Whether drawing pictures, making paintings,
Or using color.

Lord, what is beauty?
Is it a feeling, or just something to be seen?
Is it something, that our souls know when we see it?
Or is it something, we look at, and
Just put a feeling, and word to?

There are people who see beauty
Through songs, and poetry.
The lyrics, and words touch their hearts,
And their souls and spirits are lifted
High. Tears may come to their eyes as well.

Lord, what is beauty?
Is it a feeling, or just something to be seen?
Is it something, that our souls know when we see it?
Or is it something, we look at, and
Just put a feeling, and word to?

There are people who see beauty
In nature. Through the animals,
And the landscape.
From the mountains, waterfalls,
And sunsets, from the beauty of
Life, and being able to
Describe it.

Lord, what is beauty?
Is it a feeling, or just something to be seen?
Is it something, that our souls know when we see it?
Or is it something, we look at, and
Just put a feeling, and word to?

There are multiple ways to see
Beauty. I don't know which person
You are. I hope you see God's beauty
And Glory in everything.
I see beauty in nature, songs, and
Poetry. With just a little bit in
Art and color.

Lord, what is beauty?
Is it a feeling, or just something to be seen?
Is it something, that our souls know when we see it?
Or is it something, we look at, and
Just put a feeling, and word to?
