Eric Boddie Poet Ballad

The Grace of His Glory

"The Grace Of His Glory"
by:  Eric L. Boddie

Created in the Beauty
That Heaven only knows
Blessed was the day you were born
For the Grace of His Glory finally arose

Apparently you were designed
With the blueprint of a lady
Architecture so Divine
The essence consists of nothing shady

No blemishes, no flaws
I am sure the Creator is well pleased
You are poetry in motion
Beauty free of all uncertainties

Developed with the care
And the compassion of the Word
It's no wonder why the sound of you voice
Is the greatest Beauty I have ever heard

It's not hard at all to see
There is nothing difficult to grasp
I don't know what is held by the future
But I know no greater Beauty in the past

Some have come close
But none were up to the test
It's not just how you look, but it is how you act
That sets you apart from the rest

Even thirty years from now
Your Beauty is sure to remain
For I have felt the Beauty of your heart
And that's enough said, simple and plain
