Beloved and Praised


[for "God's Beloved and Praised One"]

His eyes are ever on you to watch you as you live
His heart is always for you, His everything to give
His hands ever support you, sustaining you with grace
His beauty and His glory seen upon your gentle face

He calls you His beloved, His child so dearly loved
He calls you to draw close to Him; He calls you to come up
He calls you precious daughter; He takes delight in you
He calls you now to rise in faith and see what He can do

You are admired by many as your name prophesies
You are in all things favored in Father’s loving eyes
You are appraised, deemed worthy by Savior’s grace alone
You are a praised one pointing all glory to His throne

Beloved by the Father, beloved by the Son
Enveloped by the Spirit; their strength in you is one
Praised by the lips of people who see He lives in you
Their praise goes back to Jesus; keep on – He’s pleased with you
