Beautiful

Staci Eldredge highlights the chorus of this song in the first chapter of Captivating. I downloaded it, and loved it! Here's the whole thing...

" Beautiful"
Bethany Dillon

I was so unique
Now I feel skin deep
I count on the make-up to cover it all
Crying myself to sleep
cause I cannot keep their attention
I thought I could be strong
But it's killing me

Does someone hear my cry?
I'm dying for new life

[Chorus]
I want to be beautiful
Make you stand in awe
Look inside my heart,
and be amazed
I want to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
Just want to be worthy of love
And beautiful

Sometimes I wish I was someone other than me
Fighting to make the mirror happy
Trying to find whatever is missing
Won't you help me back to glory

[ Chorus]

You make me beautiful
You make me stand in awe
You step inside my heart, and
I am amazed
I love to hear You say
Who I am is quite enough
You make me worthy of love and beautiful
