115. The Royal Way

1 I want to live in a royal way,
As a child of the King should live;
I want to give in a royal way,
Yes, give as a Prince should give.

Refrain:
Yes, I am a child of the King of kings,
An heir of a home on high!
Yes, I am a child of the King of kings,
I’ll reign with Him bye and bye.

2 I want to speak in a royal way,
Have the language of the Throne,
And honor Him who adopted me,
When I walked in sin alone. [Refrain]

3 I want to work in a royal way,
As an heir of a Throne should work;
I want to help in a royal way,
And ne’er as a servant shirk. [Refrain]

4 I want to love in a royal way,
As a child of the King should love;
I want to serve in a royal way,
My Jesus who reigns above. [Refrain]
