Jordan Feliz Performs “Beloved” Live (and Sounds Incredible)

Jordan Feliz sings “Beloved.” It’s a song that started as a message to his brand new daughter, but ended up revealing how fiercely and beautifully God the Father love us.

Oh, forget the lies you heard
Rise above the hurt
And listen to these words
You are beloved
I wanted you to know
You are beloved
– Beloved by Jordan Feliz

 

Jordan said he got the idea for this song when he was talking with friends about what it was going to be like to be a dad:

“We started talking about what the world was going to tell me daughter and it was all just heartbreaking… I remember just… saying, ‘No…’  I don’t want her thinking things like she’s not going to be pretty enough and she’s not going to be skinny enough. And that ultimately, to these skewed standards that the world has, that she’s not going to be enough… I want her to know she’s loved. And not only by me and her mom, but she is loved incredibly by the Creator of the universe…

[It dives into] what being a father looks like… It’s like all of a sudden a little switch goes off, and I’m like, ‘Oh my goodness, this is how [God] feels about all of this.’ I’m almost preaching to myself right now, too, and to everybody else… I think everybody needs to know that. You are loved so incredibly and you don’t have to live up to some standard that someone or something has put on you.”

You are beloved.
