Songs of the Saints ‎#80

80. Child of the King

1 Once I was clothed in the rags of my sin,
Wretched and poor lost and lonely within,
But with wond'rous compassion the King of all Kings,
In pity and love took me under His wing.

Refrain:
Oh, yes, Oh, Yes I'm a child of the King,
His royal blood now flows in my veins,
And I who was wretched and poor now can sing,
Praise God, praise God, I'm a child of the King.

2 Now, I'm a child with a heavenly home.
My Holy Father has made me His own
And I'm cleansed by His blood
And I'm clothed in His love,
And someday I'll sing with the angels above. [Refrain]
