The Shirt

The shirt it is a tie-dye
a color burst they say
the Cross that's in the center
marks how it got that way.

The focus should be on the Cross
with many colors bursting all around
but always look back at the Cross my friend
where the true reason can be found.

You and I are like this shirt
Others see only what we will let them see
If what they see is beautiful to them
That's what God has intended them to see.

Live your life like a tie-died shirt
Let your beauty shine from within
Center your life around the Cross
Where with Jesus all new lives begin.
