Christy Nockels' 'Be Held - Lullaby for the Beloved' is a gentle, Scripture-inspired song that reassures listeners of God's protection and spiritual armor. Drawing from Ephesians 6, it describes being covered 'head to toe' with righteousness, salvation, truth, faith, peace, and God's Word. The lullaby-like melody comforts both children and adults, emphasizing that even the small and weak can be strong in the Lord. It encourages turning worries into songs and trusting God's presence in every fight. The song connects the armor of God to a personal, loving care that endures through darkness until dawn.

Little one be strong
In the power of the Lord
And let the keeper of the stars keep
Your heart forevermore
Even though you might be small
It is in you His kingdom reigns
And from your mouth the Lord has made
A fountain for His praise
And with His righteousness, across your chest
Salvation for your head
The belt of truth, around you now
With the shield of faith in hand
And with His peace, upon your feet
Everywhere you go
His word will be the sword you keep
You're covered head to toe
You're covered head to toe
Oh the night is quickly fading
And the day will soon break in
And with the dawn the Lord will give
The grace you need to stand
And turn your worries into songs
Put on your covering of light
And you will long outlast the darkness
Because He's with you in this fight
And with His righteousness, across your chest
Salvation for your head
The belt of truth, around you now
With the shield of faith in hand
And with His peace, upon your feet
Everywhere you go
His word will be the sword you keep
You're covered head to toe
You're covered head to toe
And with His peace, upon your feet
Everywhere you go
His word will be the sword you keep
You're covered head to toe
