Beautiful Glorious Child

You are my beautiful glorious child

Plucked from the dust where you were growing wild

Castaway from grace that has been reconciled

My beautiful glorious child

Oh my beautiful glorious child

You walked a way that was dark and defiled

And by your very own tribe you were reviled

My beautiful glorious child.

You were created for so much more than this

I chose you and claimed you from that deep abyss

Now in the beloved and covered by grace

You’ll discover that love fills your empty place.

Oh my beautiful glorious child

Orphaned by a world where you were exiled

Chosen to be one on whom love has smiled

My beautiful glorious child.

My beautiful glorious child.

My beautiful glorious child.
