Lyrics
I've heard the accusation
And I've heard the propaganda
I've heard the lies they whispered to my soul
That I have been forsaken
And I'll always be forgotten
No matter what I do it's not enough
And then I heard a voice
As it opened up the heavens
Reminding me of who I've always been
I am Your beloved, You have bought me with Your blood
And on Your hand You've written out my name
I am Your beloved, one the Father loves
Mercy has defeated all my shame
There's no accusation, or any condemnation
When I look into my Father's eyes
They don't see my sin, they only see redemption
This is how my heart has been defined
I can hear a voice
That is louder than the thunder
Reminding me of who I've always been
I am Your beloved, You have bought me with Your blood
And on Your hand, You've written out my name
I am Your beloved, one the Father loves
Mercy has defeated all my shame
Oh the One who knows me best
Is the One who loves me most
There is nothing I have done
That could change the Father's love
Oh the One who knows me best
Is the One who loves me most
There is nothing I have done
That could change the Father's love
Oh the One who knows me best
Is the One who loves me most
There is nothing I have done
That could change the Father's love
I am Your beloved, You have bought me with Your blood
And on Your hand You've written out my name
I am Your beloved, one the Father loves
And Your mercy has defeated all my shame (Hey)
I am Your beloved, You have bought me with Your blood
And on Your hand You've written out my name
I am Your beloved, one the Father loves
Mercy has defeated all my shame
Your mercy, Your mercy
Defeated all my shame
Your mercy, Your mercy
Is making me whole again
Your mercy, Your mercy
Defeated all my shame
Your mercy, Your mercy
Making me whole again
Your mercy, beautiful mercy
Defeating all my shame
Oh mercy, I love Your mercy
It's making me whole again
Oh mercy, I love Your mercy
Oh mercy, I love Your mercy
I love Your mercy
