When you call us the beloved
Verse
Lord, when we tend to self-contempt
Let us not sink to lethargy
Grant us the courage to realise
self hatred wastes our energy
Refrain
May we not deny your sacred voice
With the trap of self hatred
Help us draw ever closer to you
When you call us the beloved
Verse
When we feel abandoned, help us Lord
When we’re accused or criticised
To ignore the whispers that we’re nobody
That we’re worthless and despised.
Refrain
May we not deny your sacred voice
With the trap of self hatred
Help us draw ever closer to you
When you call us the beloved
Verse
Let us not want to prove them wrong.
With power, popularity, success
The other side of self-hatred’s coin
These are traps and futile quests.
Refrain
Nor may we deny your sacred voice
With the trap of self hatred
Help us draw ever closer to you
When you call us the beloved
My.Hymnary #1669 - When you call us the beloved
