I Am a Child of the King

[sama smsma]

1. Oh, how sublime is the life of the Christian,
   Filled with the glory of Jesus divine;
   Deep in his bosom he’s joyfully conscious
   That he is born of a heavenly line.
   • Refrain:
     I am a child, a child of the King,
     I am a child, a child of the King;
     I am a prince in the kingdom of love,
     I am a child of the King.
2. Once I was lost and a child of confusion,
   Over the mountains of folly I roamed;
   But at the cross I have entered the kingdom,
   Glory to Jesus! His love is enthroned.
3. God is my Father, and Jesus my Brother,
   Since I’m adopted by heavenly love;
   I am an heir in the kingdom of glory,
   And have a crown that is waiting above.
