I Will Call You Beautiful

[Verse 1]
You throw your words like weapons
Hard, cold and sharp
I dodge them all
Never letting them touch my heart
You can call me ugly names
But I will just smile wide
I can see the beauty in you
you'll always be God's child
[Prechorus]
I’m not here to fight
or prove that I’m strong
I'm just here to love you, even
when I think you’re wrong
[Chorus]
You can call me ugly...
I will call you beautiful
You can tear me down and
I’ll see something wonderful
Mock my faith, I won't sway
I will just love you anyway
I will love you anyway
You can call me ugly...
And I will call you beautiful
[Verse 2]
You laugh at the painful scars
I’ve learned to love to wear
But I still see the pain
You're holding onto and hiding in there
You can call me foolish
I will say you’re wise
Behind your anger
I see your softer side
[Bridge]
When the world gets heavy
And you need a safer place
I’ll be the arms willing to hold you
In a loving and steady embrace
Say what you will
Scream loudly if you must
I will gladly hold your hand
when your time comes to return to dust
[Chorus]
You can call me ugly...
I will call you beautiful
You can tear me down and
I’ll see something wonderful
Mock my faith, I won't sway
I will just love you anyway
I will love you anyway
You can call me ugly...
And I will call you beautiful
I will call you beautiful
