The Look

 

By Walt Perryman

Have you ever noticed the look in a true Christian's eye?
And the contented look of someone that will not tell a lie.

Somehow, their eyes can tell you the person has a true heart,
And you want that same look, but don’t know where to start?

I believe a true Christians soul can be read like a book,
And that I want more than anything to have that look.

I believe Christians can spread Gods word by what they do,
So, the old saying, actions speak louder than words, is true.

Have you ever searched your heart and soul for this treasure?
Knowing if you find it, it is something only God can measure.

I donot know about you, but I know I want that Christian look,
And I the map to a true heart can be found in the good book.

I know right now I may not have a Christian look in my eye,
But I am searching for it, and I pray you’ll see it before I die.
