Beloved
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 who I think 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 trying 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.
[Chorus]
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.
[Chorus]
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.
[Chorus]
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.
