I am Black, You called me Lovely (Song of Songs 1:5)

Stanza 1
I am black, You called me lovely.
I am hopeless, but glorified.
Get out of time mentality,
Look from eternity.
(repeat)

Chorus
Remind me Lord, it’s Your work not mine.
You are conforming me to the image of Your firstborn Son.
It’s toward this end that all things work together;
Nothing’s happenstance, He is never mistaken in the way He deals with us.

Stanza 2
So don’t look to your feelings to measure the extent
Of your sanctification or transformation.
Don’t allow your feelings to blind you from God’s goal.
His organic work within us can never be undone.
