When I Look At You

When I look at you, I see
More than a pretty face.
I see a woman full of
God's love and grace.

When I look at you, I see
The scars on your heart,
All that you've been through
When your world was torn apart.

When I look at you, I see
A woman dealing with her past;
I see you conquered recovery,
Most didn't think you'd last.

When I look at you I see
A woman with much to give,
Even when she's doing her best
Just so she's able to live.
