D
1. My Father is rich in houses and lands,
2. My Father’s own Son, the Savior of men,
3. I once was an outcast, a stranger on earth,
4. A tent or a cottage, O why should I care?
A A7 D
He holdeth the wealth of the world in His hands!
Once wandered on earth as the poorest of them;
A sinner by choice, and an alien by birth,
They’re building a palace for me over there;
G Em
Of rubies and diamonds, of silver and gold,
But now He is pleading for sinners on high,
But I’ve been adopted, my name’s written down,
Though exiled from home, yet still I may sing:
D Bm A7 D
His coffers are full– He has riches untold.
And will give me a home when He comes by and by.
An heir to a mansion, a robe and a crown.
“All glory to God, I’m a child of the King.”
D
I’m a child of the King,
D
A child of the King!
G Em Bm
With Jesus, my Savior,
G A D
I’m a child of the King!
