Lyrics

Every tear your childfren cry
Every cloud in stormy skies
Everyone beat up by life
You make beautiful
Every valley I walk through
Every battle I may lose
Days when I give up on you
You make beautiful
See all things together
Are working forever
A beautiful plan for me
So make me beautiful
Make over my soul
Till the whole world knows
You make everything beautiful
Everybody prays for you
And we set the stakes for you
Now we pray that you come through
And make us beautiful
Change every part of me
Parts that only you can see
In you is where i want to be
So ill be beautiful
Each color you're painting
You are creating
A beautiful plan for me
So make me beautiful
Make over my soul
Who I was before
God lost in my light
Knock down every door
Let me receive more
Till the whole world knows
You make everything beautiful
Oh oh oh
Beautiful, Beautiful
You make everything beautiful(Repeat 2x)
(Kirk Franklin)
Give him every pain
Call each one by name
He can make it beautiful
Dreams youve flown away
And every mistake
Watch him make it beautiful
Things you can not change
Things you can't erase
He can make them beautiful
See the cost was high
Paid it with his life
So we can be beautiful(Repeat 2x)
Beautiful, beautiful
You make everything beautiful
Oh,oh,oh
Beautiful, beautiful
You make everything beautiful
Na(26x)

Meaning & Inspiration

Beautiful is a prayer for God to transform pain, failure, and hidden weakness into something marked by grace. The lyric gathers tears, storms, valleys, battles, and mistakes under the conviction that God can work through every part of a life. Its request to remake the soul keeps the focus on inward renewal rather than outward appearance, while the repeated refrain expresses confidence in divine restoration.

The statement that all things are working within a beautiful plan closely recalls Romans 8:28, where God works for good amid the lives of those who love him. The song also connects redemption to the costly gift of Christ, presenting beauty as something made possible through his life and sacrifice. Its language does not deny grief or erase consequences; instead, it asks God to name each pain and reshape what seems beyond repair. Repetition turns that request into sustained worship, holding personal change, hope, and the work of salvation together.
