This was never meant to be complicated
Love your neighbor
As yourself
Lord help
Why can we not do this well
What if all the answers we've been looking for
Ain't next door
Could it be
Maybe we
Just ain't that fond of ourselves
So let yourself be loved
See yourself as Jesus does
Let yourself let yourself be loved
Let yourself be loved
And hear Him say that you're enough
Let yourself let yourself be loved
Stop
And take a quick look in the mirror
Ain't it clear
That the one
Needing love
Is looking right back at you
Oh just to know
You are known
Will change the way
You see the world
Cause until you've tasted grace
How you gonna give it away
Let yourself be loved
See yourself as Jesus does
Let yourself let yourself be loved
Let yourself be loved
And hear Him say that you're enough
Let yourself let yourself be loved
Hear the King of kings say your name
Without condemnation without blame
Let it cover you like falling rain
Beautifully and wonderfully made
Let yourself be loved
See yourself as Jesus does
Let yourself let yourself be loved
Let yourself be loved
And hear Him say that you're enough
Let yourself let yourself be loved
