"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." -Deuteronomy 31:6
lyrics
You hide your beauty beneath beggar's clothes
You took your crown off long long ago
Didn't anyone tell you you are beautiful
If nobody told you then I'm telling you now
If nobody told you then I'm telling you now
You think your scars are all that I can see
Don't you know you're so much more to me
You're worth loving even when you're weak
If nobody told you then I'm telling you now
If nobody told you then I'm telling you now
So run run away from your grave
Come on love that debt's already paid
Your brokenhearted my love- I know
But run away from your grave come on home
You believed that if they knew your heart
They'd turn away and walk right out the door
Didn't anyone tell you you are worth it all
If nobody told you then I'm telling you now
If nobody told you then I'm telling you now
So run run away from your grave
Come on love that debt's already paid
Your brokenhearted my love- I know
But run away from your grave come on home
