Beautiful Butterfly

A Beautiful butterfly sitting on a rose
Quietly crying trying not to be exposed
I don’t understand God why did you pick me?
I was just an ugly caterpillar crawling on my knees
Because you loved me and called out my name
I changed you and you will never be the same
A smile came over her face and she began to sing
My Lord loves me and gave me wings!!
