I used to go to church each week and
I would hear the preacher speak,
Have some holy wine and wheat
But it didn’t fill me up

I heard about the “Golden Rule”
And how to mind my P’s and Q’s
But that no matter what I do
I’m never good enough

CH: (Why can’t I be) Beautiful just as I am, with all my imperfections intact
Some will say I’m a broken man, but God made me beuatiful, and that’s what I am

Then a thought occurred to me
Guilt is like gravity
It holds the ground to my feet
So I can never fly too high

And feel the love that’s in the air
Or see the holiness everywhere;
Stop looking for heaven up there
When it’s right before my eyes

Sometimes I wonder how it all works out. I always have questions and always have doubts.
It’s hard to hear though the silence when it feels like a test
But if I ask, “am I beautiful?” the answer’s “yes”

HiYa Bro-Amigo!

I Like what ya got here...it's refreshingly Honest.

V2 is simply BRILLIANT writing, Buddy.

I agree witcha on the Bridge Question.

This IS a Lyric that Lives Up To Its Name. "BRAVO", & Good Luck with it!

Best Wishes & a Big Guy-Hug,

Thanks for all the kind words Stan.
This song was hard to write at first because of the honesty factor. As I was writing I had to think "Do I believe this stuff?" Yes. "Do I think it's more true than what I have been believing?" "If I do, then I'll have to change a lot of other beliefs that are in conflict with these."

In any event...the writing of this song marked a major change for me and so far I've been a lot happier and fulfilled because of it.

Probably more than you wanted to know...
