Inner Light (extended)

A whisper in the wind, a truth we can't deny

Beauty's in the soul, not just the eye

People chase the shiny things, thinking they bring peace

But emptiness remains when the material's released

They dress their outside, trying to hide what's inside

True beauty starts where the heart can no longer hide

It's a love that lifts us, a light that guides

A deeper joy that never fades or dies

Happiness is loving others, feeling the love shine through

Joy comes from loving God, in everything we do

Having stuff is just stuff, but inside we find our gold

Beauty from within is what makes us whole

That fancy phone and that car so new,l

They're just things not the inner you

Those new shiny things in which you relied

Won't fill that emptiness inside

It's a love that lifts us, a light that guides

A deeper joy that never fades or dies

Happiness is loving others, feeling the love shine through

Joy comes from loving God, in everything we do

Having stuff is just stuff, but inside we find our gold

Beauty from within is what makes us whole

Look beyond the surface, see what's really true

It's the love within that defines you

Let your heart be your mirror, let your spirit soar

True joy is found when love is at your core

So cherish what's inside, let your inner light glow

That's where real happiness will grow

Loving others, loving Him, that's the secret and the truth

Beauty’s in the soul, eternal and youth
