The Oyster

I think the oyster is 
much like our life
when its filled with 
fear and strife




we can be ugly on the 
outside then God comes in 
and finds the beauty 
that comes from within




He comes into our heart 
and gives life a new start
The ugly disappears and is 
replaced with a heart that cares



Inside the oyster is a 
beautiful pearl we all know
When God comes into our heart 
His love starts to show




So remember the beautiful 
pearl may be in a ugly shell
but the beauty with in is 
the story we tell




God made you the person 
you are the beauty He 
gave you is yours to share,
The beauty within you 
because He cares
