"Mirror" - BarlowGirl

"Don't be concerned about the outward beauty that depends on fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should be known for the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God." -1 Peter 3:3-4

I loved the message of this song... life is about turning away from the mirror that lies to us and looking to the One who made us and created us in His image. At the beginning of the school year Emily told us that God would use these songs to work in our lives and that as we heard the lyrics over and over again at rehearsal they would start to pop into our heads at random times... and she was right. I really enjoyed the visual aspect of this song as we danced with silver picture frames, fought with them, and finally threw them down in order to dance freely.

Mirror, Mirror on the wall, 

Have I got it?

'Cause Mirror you've always told me who I am
I'm finding it's not easy to be perfect
So sorry you won't define me
Sorry you don't own me

Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?

Who are you? Who are you?
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, I won't try

Mirror I am seeing a new reflection
I'm looking into the eyes of He who made me
And to Him I have beauty beyond compare

I know He defines me

Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, I won't try

You don't define me, you don't define me
