The Essense of Elegance

Stamped with God's Nature 
I want to reflect God's traits
I must be mature 

It takes some effort
Spiritual wisdom - priceless!
Sin's rinsed off like dirt

Made in God's image 
The essence of elegance 
Embracing refuge 

Transform me, I'm blind -
Engaging myself with joy
Grand Kingdom in mind

Absorbing His lOvE
Let me have Your (precious) perspective 
I fancy AbOvE

Mold me like play-dough
Let me drink in Your spirit 
Don't let my rage grow 

Mercy and kindness...
My tongue will speak no evil 
Humble mindfulness...

Forgive me please
Give me the qualities of life
Put my heart at ease

Let my voice be heard
My human nature breaks me
I treasure Your Word

Hear me out, oh Lord
The essence of elegance
I pray for accord

His truth is so prized
The night shines as a bright day
I'm loved, not despised

You're one-of-a-kind
Your affection, your purpose -
Healing Grace in mind

Joyous praise I sing 
His flawless faith leads to life
God's doing his thing!

I knocked on His door
His eternal empathy...
We're needing it more

His Most Perfect Law -
it produces liberty
Worship him in awe

Made in His image
My past, present and future,
(Spent) Crossing His Bridge

His compassion shows
He relieved me from distress 
Sweet essence blows...glows...

Leaning towards His path
He supports me when I'm weak
His soul, not of wrath
