Virtue…

I am teaching the young women at my church a new song for Young Women in Excellence evening that is coming up (they get to showcase what they have achieved this year). Anyway, its a lovely song by Jenny Phillips called ‘Virtue‘  – I really like the lyrics so I wanted to share…

Because I love the Father
I want the minds of men to be lifted when they look at me
Because I am His daughter
I want my devotion to Him to be what they see
I don’t need the attention of immodesty
I am confident in my divinity

I didn’t come to earth to compromise
I came here to hold up my light
I won’t flirt with the darkness that I came here to fight
You’ll find me on the Father’s side
No matter what the world may do
I’m a daughter of God and I’m holding onto Virtue

I want to lead a life that is full of so much good it attracts the light to me
So I’m trusting in my Father to magnify the beauty He has placed in me
I am confident in my divinity

I didn’t come to earth to compromise
I came here to hold up my light
I won’t flirt with the darkness that I came here to fight
You’ll find me on the Father’s side
No matter what the world may do
I’m a daughter of God
And I’m holding onto Virtue

Here’s the video:

Proverbs 31:10 – ‘Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies’.
