It's not glamorous to be yourself

It's not glamorous to be yourself
by Joel Howard

It's not glamorous to be yourself
to know who you are
to hide in God's purpose for you

Nobody knows you 
when you go deep
and don't seek to raise yourself up

Its not Hollywood or Vegas
to submit to God and his love 

But it is dangerous to sell yourself
to raise a shout to earn some love

I have found that the prodigal's path 
is the beggar's path
the path of waste and aimless days

May Mercy's eyes draw us 
with kindness from sin that blinds us 
lest we forget 
that through the tears of repentance years
through his blood that clears our record
when fame we forfeit
Then we have enough 
When we enter into his love
