A song for every girl

Recently at thefamilyroom LIVE event in Sydney, Australia, we were completely blown away by the story of a beautiful woman named Frances who, through horrific adversity, realised something within her that enabled her to rise up and get through it all.

She never stopped believing that life, hope, strength, laughter and joy were waiting for her on the other side, cheering her on, every step of the way.

Yes, she’s human, so these were not the only voices she heard, but these were the ones she CHOSE to listen to.

Have a read of these lyrics below, download it from iTunes and play it to the girls in your life … for me that’s my 15 year old daughter. Powerful words that can change how girls, entering their teens and beyond, view themselves and their place in the world.

 

 

 

 

 

Beautiful Flower by Indie.Arie

This is a song for every girl who’s
Ever been through something

She thought she couldn’t make it through
I sing these words because
I was that girl too
Wanting something better than this
But who do I turn to

Now we’re moving from the darkness into the light
This is the defining moment of our lives

‘Cause you’re beautiful like a flower
More valuable than a diamond
You are powerful like a fire
You can heal the world with your mind

There is nothing in the world that you cannot do
When you believe in you, who are beautiful
Yeah, you, who are brilliant
Yeah, you, who are powerful
Yeah, you, who are resilient

This is a song for every girl who
Feels like she is not special
‘Cause she don’t look like a supermodel Coke bottle
The next time the radio tells you to shake your money maker
Shake your head and tell them, tell them you’re a leader

Now we’re moving from the darkness into the light
This is the defining moment of our lives

‘Cause you’re beautiful like a flower
More valuable than a diamond
You are powerful like a fire
You can heal the world with your mind

There is nothing in the world that you cannot do
When you believe in you, who are beautiful
Yeah, you, who are brilliant
Yeah, you, who are powerful
Yeah, you, who are resilient

Yeah, you, who are beautiful
Yeah, you, who are brilliant
Yeah, you, who are powerful
Yeah, you, who are resilient

Yeah, you, this song is for you
Yeah, you, this song is for you
Yeah, you, this song is for you
Yeah, you, yeah, you
You are brilliant

Enjoy,
Michaela
