Lirieke: Felicia Sorensen. His Image In Your Countenance.

with no apparent beauty that man should him desire
he was the promised savior to purify with fire
the world despised his plainness
but those who followed him found love and light and purity
a beauty from within

have you recieved his image in your countenance?
does the light of christ shine in your eyes?
will he know you when he comes again because you will be like him?
when he sees you will the father know his child?

we seek for light and learning as followers of christ
that all may see his goodness reflected in our lives
when we recieve his fulness and lose desire for sin
we radiate his perfect love
a beauty from within

have you recieved his image in your countenance?
does the light of christ shine in your eyes?
will he know you when he comes again because you will be like him?
when he sees you will the father know his child?

the ways of man may tempt us
and some will be deceived
preferring worldly beauty, forgetting truth recieved
but whisperings of the spirit remind us once again
that lasting beauty, pure and clear
must come from deep within

have you recieved his image in your countenance?
does the light of christ shine in your eyes?
will he know you when he comes again because you will be like him?
when he sees you will the father know his child?
by his everlasting image in your eyes
