lyrics

1. I’ve seen the photographs;

I’ve seen the women on my screens.

It’s heavy on my mind

Why they seem happier than me.

And I’ve been running ’round

Chasing down the person I should be.

It keeps me up at night.

These expectations always seem

Too heavy. How can I

Find truth when it’s so hard to see?

’Cause it’s like tryin’ to find

a drop inside an ocean far too deep. Mm.

But then I hear You when I feel alone.

Your voice can heal me,

Save me from myself.

You take my weight

And carry it away.

And I remember I’m beloved.

I’m divine—

Divine in nature,

And I’m perfectly designed.

When I don’t feel wanted,

You call me—

I remember I’m beloved.

I’m divine—

Divine in nature,

And I’m perfectly designed.

When I don’t feel wanted,

You call me beloved. Beloved.

2. I tune the noises out,

And in the silence I can see

You love me more than life,

And your love is all the hope I need.

The proof is in the stars

And in the scars you took for me.

Sometimes I hear You when I feel alone.

Your voice can heal me,

Save me from myself.

I know who I am

No matter where I go.

I remember I’m beloved.

I’m divine—

Divine in nature,

And I’m perfectly designed.

When I don’t feel wanted,

You call me—

I remember I’m beloved.

I’m divine—

Divine in nature,

And I’m perfectly designed.

When I don’t feel wanted,

You call me beloved. Beloved.

My scars don’t make me who I am.

Oh, they just tell my story.

The imperfections fade away,

And You help me see the beauty.

My scars don’t make me who I am.

Oh, they just tell my story.

The imperfections fade away,

Fade away.

And I remember I’m beloved.

I’m divine—

Divine in nature,

And I’m perfectly designed.

When I don’t feel wanted,

You call me—

I remember I’m beloved.

I’m divine—

Divine in nature,

And I’m perfectly designed.

When I don’t feel wanted,

You call me beloved. Beloved.
