Adding to the Beauty

This afternoon around the time that Jason was about to head into an interview, I was in the car with Anna and Taylor heading to an appointment.  I asked them to pray with me for Jason.  Right before we prayed, Taylor said very matter-of-factly, "Mom, I pray for Daddy every night." 

It's these little glimpses into our children's hearts of things that I normally do not see or know 
that give me pause, and I marvel at the mystery of how souls can truly touch other souls and add to the beauty. 
We come with beautiful secrets
We come with purposes written on our hearts, written on our souls
We come to every new morning
With possibilities only we can hold, that only we can hold

Redemption comes in strange place, small spaces
Calling out the best of who we are

And I want to add to the beauty
To tell a better story
I want to shine with the light
That's burning up inside

It comes in small inspirations
It brings redemption to life and work
To our lives and our work

It comes in loving community
It comes in helping a soul find it's worth

Redemption comes in strange places, small spaces
Calling out the best of who we are

And I want to add to the beauty
To tell a better story
I want to shine with the light
That's burning up inside

This is grace, an invitation to be beautiful
This is grace, an invitation

Redemption comes in strange places, small spaces
Calling out our best

And I want to add to the beauty
To tell a better story
I want to shine with the light
That's burning up inside end of lyrics
