Beautiful Creatures

We’re beautiful creatures, 
shaped and fashioned by God
We’re loving and kind
We’re sweet and gentle
We’re bright and smart
We teach and correct
We organize and orchestrate
We're beautiful creatures
We’re strong and courageous 
We comfort and encourage
We can be as meek as a lamb, 
as tough as a lion
We make a house a home
We're beautiful creatures
We’re hard to understand
We're hard to figure out
We can laugh our loudest laugh 
We can smile our brightest smile 
We can cry for no reason at all
We can be soft and sweet, as a rose, 
but watch out for our thorns
We’re beautiful and complicated
God’s beautiful complicated creatures
