In you I see great strength
In character and will
I see a stand up young man
Who just tries to keeps it real
In you I see such depth
A soul that's young and old
One who can see beneath stories
For the truths yet to be told
In you I see a writer
Who scripts his own destiny
By believing in the power
Of becoming who you wish to be
In you I see honor and pride
Which is never righteous or proud
Your values are your armor
Which cover you like a shroud
In you I see the face of Christ
Wronged, but who kept forgiving
Your pain and scars are gentle reminders
The inspiration for the life you're living
In you I see a quiet reflection
Yet I wonder if you'll ever believe
How beautiful you truly are
So you'll appreciate the things in you I see
