So i woke up in the morning With only one word on my mind It was given to me in my sleep And i knew i just had to find The meaning, the answer The reason for this mystery Oh, and i knew it came from you 'cause i felt this overwhelming peace You said i am a crown of splendor You said i am a royal diadem in your hand You've called me hephzibah You've called me hephzibah I'm no longer forsaken, oh but to know That you delight in me And you call me hephzibah So i was once desperately Insecure and desolate What damaged dignity In all my sins and faults and bruises Trying to find my beauty Seemed impossible to me Till you came and took my shame And dressed me up in your glory You said i am a crown of splendor You said i am a royal diadem in your hand You've called me hephzibah You've called me hephzibah I'm no longer forsaken, oh but to know That you delight in me And you call me hephzibah What magnificent exchange You've adorned me with your name Your beauty for my sin And here i stand not just forgiven But dressed in royalty, as you rejoice over me As a bridegroom for his bride Now i can see you and how you really see me
