The Beauty Within
By Eileen Ramage ©1996

Such beauty that lies within

No joy that can compare.

You can search the world all over.

You won't find it anywhere.



You may like the shine of diamonds,

The glitter of pure gold,

A body that is beautiful.

Nice things that you can hold.



All these things are fragile.

Get old and pass away.

But the beauty that lies within us

Lasts forever come what may.



This rare and special beauty

Can lay hidden from your view.

I know that you can find it

By searching within you.



Great joy I know will follow.

Your life will now be free.

The serenity that you'll feel

You then can share with me.
