Once in a while a song comes along and grabs me...

Every once in a while I hear a song on WMHK and am just blown away by the lyrics I hear. The song below is called "More Beautiful You" and it is by Johnny Diaz. It is a christian song. I had never heard of this artist, but I tell you, this man has Truth. And it's truth that our young girls and daughters need to hear desperately in this society. Not only the lyrics, but the music is just so moving. I found myself blaring the words loudly in the van today as I drove to Wa*Mart by myself today and I was crying as I tried singing along (I did not know the words, so I googled them and here they are below). Having 2 sisters and a daughter of my own, I "feel" the words to this song about how girls feel and how they just want to feel special. I think it's important that our girls know God created them with a special purpose in mind and that there could truly never be a more beautiful you. Love, LOVE, LOVE this song!!!! Please listen to it on my playlist at right.



Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn't straight her body isn't fake
And she's always felt overweight

Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are

There could never be a more beautiful you
Don't buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you

Little girl twenty-one the things that you've already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you've got a man but he's got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead

Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there's a man whose love is true
And he'll treat you like the jewel you are

So turn around you're not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It's not too late you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear they can all be washed away
By the one who's strong can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world

He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light
He will show you truth
And again you'll see through the eyes of a little girl
