It is not a physical beauty, which with the eyes is seen
The beauty of a woman goes far beyond her smile
It is a testimony of true joy that lasts for miles and miles
The beauty of a woman is not in her dressing
Nor is it about the radiance of her skin
The beauty of a woman is a gift from heaven above
It is a genuine beauty reflecting the Father's love
The beautiful woman is not easily carried away
But patiently waits for the Lord's time and day
She seeks to please her maker with her heart, soul and mind
And in so doing, all she needs she finds
The beautiful woman is kind, gentle, peaceful and polite
She reaches out to others with a joyful and loving heart
A woman of pure intentions, honest and virtuous too
A sanctuary for the Lord, a holy place, tried and true
