Bethel feat. David Funk – Beauty (review)
You’re Beautiful is a stirring, worshipful song that resonates deeply with those seeking to express heartfelt adoration for the divine. The lyrics artfully juxtapose the grandeur of God’s essence with the simplicity of the refrain, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful, creating a profound yet accessible expression of faith.
The song opens with an invocation to Behold the One, emphasizing the magnificence and life-giving essence of the divine being, encapsulating God’s role as the source of all life and light. This theme continues as the song celebrates Jesus as the Man of grace and truth who represents the Father’s love and sacrifice—a clear allusion to significant Christian beliefs about Jesus’s role in salvation.
The repetition of Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful acts like a meditative chant, allowing listeners to immerse themselves in a reflective state of worship. The lyrics create vivid imagery that both praises God’s holiness and acknowledges the awe-inspiring beauty witnessed in His presence.
Further deepening the spiritual experience, the song includes a powerful segment where angels are depicted crying out in an unending song, exclaiming Holy is the Lord God Almighty. This not only pays homage to the celestial worship found in Biblical scripture but also invites the listener to join in a universal chorus of wonder and reverence.
Overall, You’re Beautiful is not just a song, but a spiritual journey that reflects a deep, communal experience of God’s majestic beauty. It effectively combines lyrical richness with melodic simplicity, making it a compelling choice for both personal reflection and corporate worship.

Lyrics
Behold the One, the radiance
The splendor of every living thing
You are the Word, You are the Life
You are the face of God
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful
Behold the Man of grace and truth
The image of the Father’s outstretched hand
This act of love, this sacrifice
We’ve seen the face of God
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful
And oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful
And oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful, hey
Angels cry out this unending song
Holy is the Lord God Almighty
We all bow down in wonder and awe
Forever we will sing of Your beauty
Oh angels cry out this unending song
Holy is the Lord God Almighty
We all bow down in wonder and awe
Forever we will sing of Your beauty
Oh angels cry out this unending song
Holy is the Lord God Almighty (Hey)
We all bow down in wonder and awe
Forever we will sing of Your beauty
You’re beautiful (Oh-oh-oh)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful, hey
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, You’re beautiful, hey yeah (Ooh)
You’re beautiful
