You had a light
Till somebody stole it
The words that they said cut you like a knife
They Called you a name you started to own it
You hear the echoes in the dead of night
Tired of the cheap shots
Comin at you nonstop
Leavin' marks on your heart
Like a tattoo
Drowning on the inside
Reaching for a lifeline
Let these be the words that you hold on to
You are loved
Chosen
Long before the day you were born
You are held
Forgiven
Treasured more than you'll ever know
When the lies get loud
Let the truth ring out
Till the only thing you're listening to
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you...
And If the hands
That gave you a heartbeat
Are the same hands that painted the stars
Then child of the one true God
Tell me how could you not
Believe that you're a work of art
You are loved
Chosen
Long before the day you were born
You are held
Forgiven
Treasured more than you'll ever know
When the lies get loud
Let the truth ring out
Till the only thing you're listening to
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you
The only thing that matters
The only thing that matters
You are loved
Chosen
Long before the day you were born
You are held
Forgiven
Treasured more than you'll ever know
When the lies get loud
Let the truth ring out
Till the only thing you're listening to
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you
Is what he says about you
The only thing that matters
Is what he says about you
The only thing that matters
Is what he says about you
