Lyrics

(D)Days will come when you don’t have the strength,

when (Em)all you hear is you’re not worth an y thing.

(D)Won d’ring if you ev er could be loved,

and if they tru ly saw your heart, they’d see too much.

You’re beau ti ful,

you’re beau ti ful.

You are made for so much more than all of this.

You’re beau ti ful,

you’re beau ti ful,

you are treas ured, you are sa cred, you are His.

You’re beau ti ful.

I’m (D)pray ing that you have the heart to fight,

’cause you are more than what is hurt ing you to night.

For (D)all the lies you’ve held in side so long,

and they are noth ing in the shad ow of the cross.

You’re beau ti ful,

you’re beau ti ful.

You are made for so much more than all of this.

You’re beau ti ful,

you’re beau ti ful.

You are treas ured, you are sa cred, you are His.

You’re beau ti ful.

Be fore you ev er took a breath, long be fore the world be gan, of all the won ders He pos sessed, there was one more pre cious.

Of all the earth and skies a bove, you’re the one He mad ly loves,

e nough to

die.

You’re beau ti ful,

you’re beau ti ful

in His (C)eyes.

You’re beau ti ful.

You were meant for so much (Bm)more than all of this.

You’re beau ti ful.

You are treas ured, you are (Bm)sa cred, you are His.

You’re beau ti ful.

You were meant for so much (Bm)more than all of this.

You’re beau ti ful.

You are treas ured, you are (Bm)sa cred, you are His.

You’re beau ti ful.
