Your Beauty's in Christ

Celebrating the beginning of Chris and Nadia Bowman's long marriage. March 13, 2010.
You're not the one for me, you're not the one I see
         standing there
Gleaming like royalty, but restless inside
         with the shadows of fear

But I see right through you, to the new you
No matter what veils you place or I pose

          I will not be me
          You will not be you
          I choose to see Christ in you when you seem princess or   
                       frog
          Your beauty's in Christ

Years will flow by and emotions run dry and
         I won't want to try
Armor will rust and your diadem dim,
         and my heart may forget the joy

But I'll look right through you, to the new you
No matter how wrinkled or worn you become

          I will not be me
          You will not be you
          It's when I see Christ in you that my heart beats one with 
                     yours
           Your beauty's in Christ
