V1
They called me Nobody
Unwanted, unloved
They called me Unworthy
And Never Enough

But then Jesus told me
What they called you are lies
As He gently whispered
Dear child, You’re mine…and 

CH
He gave me a name
He calls me Redeemed   
Beloved and Chosen
Forgiven and Free
He calls me Treasured
Restored and Complete
Oh, my whole life changed
When He gave me a name

V2
He calls me Somebody
Desired and loved
Valued so highly
And worth oh so much

I’m part of His family
I’m a branch of the vine  
It happened when Jesus
Said child, You’re mine…and

CH

BR
Oh if you could only see
Everything He did for me
When the Name above all names…(into the chorus) gave me a name

CH
