It Ain't Pretty (But It's Beautiful)

Driving home from work just yesterday
 impatiently waiting for the light to change
 I noticed a homeless mom and her two kids
 She reached out and lifted up a trash can lid
 Her face lit up when she looked inside
 And pulled out a broken armless doll
 knelt down and gave it to her smallest Child
 And God you should have seen her smile
 It ain't pretty, but it's beautiful
 Life ain't perfect, but it's wonderful
 We're all broken, but we're loveable
 It ain't pretty, but it's beautiful
 Got home and told my wife bout what I'd seen
 She grabbed her purse, took me by the hand and said come with me
 We drove around until we found the three of them
 I wondered who was blessing who when they got in
 We bought them food and clothes and drove them to a toy store
 And the little girl said "I don't need a brand new doll"
 as she hugged the broken armless one they found before
 she said "this one needs me more"
 She ain't pretty, but she's beautiful
 She ain't perfect, but she's wonderful
 She might be broken, but she's loveable
 She ain't pretty, but She's beautiful
 Last night my wife and I talked till the sun came up
 About how we fuss and fight sometimes,
 Say ugly things act so unkind
 But we think God we always find our way back to love
 It ain't pretty, but it's beautiful
 Our love ain't perfect, but it's wonderful
 We're still learning to be loveable
 It ain't pretty, but it's beautiful
 We're all learning to be loveable
 Ain't always pretty, but it's beautiful
