Lyrics:

My child, rest your tired eyes
... I know you've been running
Between the lies and the truth of who I am

One thing you need to understand
is I would never bring you here to drown
I command the wind and the waves
So don't be afraid
Just step out on the water in faith

Don't you know before the world began
I sang you to sleep at night
And you we're so beautiful in My eyes
Didn't you realize...
I would never let you go...

My child, rest your weary soul
I know you've been dying
To fill the hole that exists on the inside
To not feel ashamed

But child I have given you a new name
One the world doesn't see
If you just keep your eyes fixed on mine
I promise I will set you free

Cause don't you know before the world began
I knew the path you'd take
And make no mistake that My heart aches
Everytime I see you cry
I will wipe those tears from your eyes

And I know you get so sad sometimes
But I possess a flame
It's a light so bright that it can shine through the shame
And make you beautiful

...You are so beautiful...

Should you ever doubt that what I say is true
Just remember that I sent my son in flesh and blood in order to save you

My child just take a breath
There's nothing more to fear
No, not even death for I will always keep you near

Cause don't you know before the world began, I knew that you would fall
So I sent the son I loved to pay the cost
So you could never be lost

...You were never lost...

And I know you feel surrounded by the shadows but I possess a holy flame
It's a love so powerful that it can burn through the pain and make you whole again

I am making you whole again
I am making you whole again
I am making you whole again
