Daughter of the King
by Lesley-Anne Evans

One day she wakes up broken
weary, of the life she's come to know .
She used to feel she had potential
now all she feels is old.
Her eyes have lost their brightness
and her soul is growing cold.
Nobody seems to notice
Nobody but the Lord...

and He whispers....

You are lovely
You are precious
You are my delight, for you are daughter of the King.
Leave unworthy
In the ashes,
lift your eyes and see yourself through me.
Cherished and beloved one, be free.
Perfect, precious daughter of the King.

Still she looks for answers
to feed a hunger she can't name.
The black and white of childhood
is lost in shades of grey.
To find herself she thinks
that she must give herself away.
She prays in desperation
to hold on another day,

and He calls her...

You are lovely
You are precious
You are my delight, for you are daughter of the King.
Leave unworthy
In the ashes,
lift your eyes and see yourself through me.
Cherished and beloved one, be free.
Perfect, precious daughter of the King.

and she hears him...

I am lovely,
I am precious,
I have been redeemed and been made clean.
Through your love I've been made worthy,
in your love and grace I am made free.
I belong to you,
because you've chosen me.
I'm daughter of the King.
