Lyrics Cat Stevens – The Beloved
Text:
His wisdom flowed from Heaven’s Book
Just like threaded pearls
Just like threaded pearls
He left his self to flee to God
He was born to be the beloved
A will of the Divine
He was born to be the beloved
He was born to guide
He prayed all his nights alone
In stars and Angels’ sight
And in the day he lit the way
With blazing words so bright
He was born to be the beloved
A will of the Divine
He was born to be the beloved
He was born to be kind
He taught the people to worship
Bowing to one God
Bowing to one God
His mercy stretched from East to West
To every man, woman and child
He was born to be the beloved
A will of the Divine
He was born to be the beloved
Nature — sublime
He opened up the doors of love
For every heart parched with thirst
He was a mercy to the worlds
And unto the universe
He was born to be the beloved
A will of the Divine
He was born to be the beloved
He was born to guide
