Treasures Inside

A flawless man, whom can find?
Peel back the layers
Find the treasures he holds inside

Trials, triumphs, and pardoned sin
Truth, depth
From deep within

A good man, not too good to be true
But one who could be wicked
If wicked he did choose

But chose to be faithful and chose to be true
Chose to love
To cherish, to woo

One who will fall, fail, and falter
But is a friend of forgiveness
And comes back even stronger

A man who is stubborn in all the right things
Who lives by his convictions
And laughs at the small things

One who sings in octaves below
So that laughter is promised
The brunt of a never ending joke

One who at first didn't check each mark
Because God's weaving a story
The tapestry of grace and two lives thus far

A man of integrity and the purest intentions
Eyes for only you
And does not withhold his affections

A flaw-full man, I have found
With treasures untold
And grace that abounds

Because all that glitters is not gold
His heart is tenderly tainted
And the one I cherish and hold
