Beyoncé gifts Blue Ivy with birthday song, 'God Made You Beautiful' [LISTEN]

Yesterday was Blue Ivy Carter's second birthday. To celebrate the little tyke, Beyoncé debuted a new song, "God Made You Beautiful," on Jay Z's Life + Times blog. The song was originally teased on Bey's Life Is But A Dream documentary.

The tender, heartfelt track opens with an echoing a cappella chorus. The beat starts, and Bey sings, "When you were born the angels sighed with delight / They never thought they'd seen such a beautiful." The song expands with piano, strings and clapping, and Queen Bey continues with more doting lyrics about Blue's little feet and perfect smile and how she brings her "back to life."

The song came with an image of Jay holding his daughter Lion King-style in an infinity pool. Clearly this tot is getting some love. According to Hollywood Life, Blue reportedly also got a "full-blooded Arabian suitable for competing in equestrian." But in our opinion, the song is the better present.
