Not the whispered wings of dragonflies
Nor the golden hues of sweet sunrise
....your lips
........your cheeks
............your nose
................your eyes
This is where true beauty lies

Not the melodic charm of an ocean sigh
Nor the moonlit clouds in a starlit sky
....your dreams
........your hopes
............your laughs
................your cries
This is where true beauty lies

Not the morning dance of a butterfly
Nor the soothing tune of a cricket's cry
....your heart
........your soul
............your love
................your mind
This is where true beauty lies

I stand in wonder at all He did create
I stand in wonder at the beauty of your face
In this world of splendor I take no surprise
That nothing compares in a mother's eyes
