Yes, I have an arrangement, but you'd need to get in touch with Libby to use it. PM me if you want me to send you the arrangment I have. The words are:
How could anyone ever tell you
You were anything less than beautiful?
How could anyone ever tell you
You were less than whole?
How could anyone fail to notice
That your loving is a miracle?
How deeply you're connected to my soul!

Words and music c. Libby Roderick

It is by Libby and it is included in her songbook here. She also has some pretty specific rules about using her songs, including for church services, so I would explore that site for information and make sure it is okay. I notice she also has t-shirts with the words to this song on them!

Good luck and welcome to the Mudcat!

Here's a start, I think this is the one you mean and it is the one I am hearing in my mind. I am sure Animaterra has sung this on a CD and, if she has time to come in here, she should be able to tell you where to find music. If not, we can help, I am sure. Here ya go:

I can hear it in my head, but cannot remember the name nor all of the words. I'll be back in a bit.

I need to give the organist the words and music to this song. The words I know are: Don't let anyone ever tell you that you're anything less than beautiful; Don't let anyone ever tell you that you're less than whole, etc., etc., ending in the word soul. It's often sung in Unitarian Universalist services--I'd be so grateful to know where to find it; I've looked everywhere. And the search has taken me here! This is my first request. Thanks.
