Beautiful

This is an absolute favorite song of mine and I think it speaks to the heart of all girls. Working with middle schools, I see it even in that age. They want that and have had people in their lives tell them differently. It breaks my heart but I have the privilege of working with my co-leader who has a passion for these girls and for them to see how beautiful they truly are. She was leading a girl's retreat and she was discussing all this and how Satan attacks girls and breaks them down, especially in this area. She was crying by the time she was done talking because she is so passionate about this and sees so much hurt. I have been blessed with incredible girls that have been through a lot but still stand out as girls that follow their faith. I have seen them change so much and it makes me so proud to even be their leader. I can't wait to see what God does in each of them. They are beautiful and I love them.

Beautiful-Bethany Dillon

I was so unique
Now I feel skin deep
I count on the make-up to cover it all
Crying myself to sleep cause I cannot keep their attention
I thought I could be strong
But it's killing me

Does someone hear my cry?
I'm dying for new life

I want to be beautiful
Make you stand in awe
Look inside my heart,
and be amazed
I want to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
Just want to be worthy of love
And beautiful

Sometimes I wish I was someone other than me
Fighting to make the mirror happy
Trying to find whatever is missing
Won't you help me back to glory


You make me beautiful
You make me stand in awe
You step inside my heart, and I am amazed
I love to hear You say
Who I am is quite enough
You make me worthy of love and beautiful
