Today I neglected my mirror I went out into the world With egg on my face The egg didn't bother me I didn't know it was there But I wondered why I was getting those stares Who needs a mirror For what can they do But show me what I look like From your point of view Maybe I think wearing egg is pretty But I sort of doubt if I do For if I really thought it was In style I would smear it all over And wear it with a smile Who needs a mirror to point Out my flaws I'm perfect as I am I'm blinded to the facts What I don't see Can not bother me If I looked into a mirror I might have to change my ways I might have to wash my face I might have to brush my teeth I might have to comb my hair I might have to pull up my slip I might have do something different today Lord help me dust off my mirror Let me see myself as you see me So others can see you through me So I may be acceptable in your sight. This is my prayer |

This is wonderful! That's all I ever want too, just to be a reflection of His Love! A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails. |

I really like this...we need to care about what God thinks, not what others think! I like this- a little comedy added with the egg.  It is really good!!God Bless and Keep Smiling  Stacey The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love. ~Gal. 5:6 |

This is the way we should be, just be like Jesus and not the world. Lovely said! A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes. |

Song Bird, Comical and terrifying all at the same time..... I for one need to spend more time in front of that dreaded mirror, not for vanity's sake but to look at myself as God would and I do hope that I can see the egg for what it is and not cosmetic. Bob <>< |
