Beauty
Your mother called you ugly-
when you brought home our child
But trust the only thing more beautiful-
is the innocence of our newly born child
When you brought home our child-
they laughed at the trials you brought
But trust your beauty is priceless-
ugly inside from the evils they sought
But trust the only thing more beautiful-
is the choice you made to carry new life
To bring new joy to the world-
a messiah you will pay no ransom for life
Your smile that fill us with grace-
sometimes you are unaware the look on you face
The look that tells us all truths-
of how your heart was made whole
And how easy this life is now-
that you bore the pain, legendary so bold
Is the innocence of our newly born child
pharaoh of modern times he'll become
For from the depths of your soul's beauty
You gave me a son
