'So don't look at me
I can't stand the sight of me
So how can You, in Your infinite glory, allow me to be in Your presence?'
'Yet You
With a voice that calms the sea of anxiety in my soul
Tell me to look up
And Your eyes that see right through me
Tell me that You knew me
And I behold You in all Your beauty
And I'm satisfied
A heart that has constantly tried to find its purpose in everything else in life finally resides at rest'
'Because Your beauty is much more than infatuation
Your beauty provides my soul with satiation
-
Because when I look into Your face
The world grows strangely dim
And I'm all in'
'You know me
The real me
The me that I've been both chasing and running away from my entire life
So scared that if You were to cut me open
That disgust and darkness would be the color I would bleed
And that You would be embarrassed that You chose to ransom me'
'Yet that's the me You know
That's the me You love'
'You are better than the things that I've been chasing
You are beautiful
You are my joy in the trials that I am facing
You are beautiful
Peace to my storm, stronger than my addiction
Help in my time of need, comfort in my affliction
You are beautiful
And You will forever be'
'Beauty' by Isaac Wimberley
