Family Of God

 

Chorus

I’m so glad I’m a part of the family of God

I’ve been washed in the fountain,

Cleansed by His blood

Joint heir with Jesus as we travel this sod

For I’m part of the family,

The family of God.

You may notice we say

Brother and Sister round here

That’s because we’re a family

And these folks are so dear

When one has a heartache

We all shed the tear

And rejoice in each victory

In this family so dear.

I’m so glad I’m a part of the family of God

I’ve been washed in the fountain,

Cleansed by His blood

Joint heir with Jesus as we travel this sod

For I’m part of the family,

The family of God.

From the door of an orphanage

To the house of the king

I’m no longer and outcast

And a new song I sing

From rags unto riches

From weak unto strong

I’m not worthy to be here

But praise God, I belong!

I’m so glad I’m a part of the family of God

I’ve been washed in the fountain,

Cleansed by His blood

Joint heir with Jesus as we travel this sod

For I’m part of the family,

The family of God.

I’m so glad I’m a part of the family of God

 

 

 

Hearken, my beloved brethren,

 

 

 

Hath not God chosen the poor

of this world rich in faith,

and heirs of the kingdom

which he hath promised

to them that love him? 

James 2:5

The Spirit itself beareth witness

with our spirit,

that we are the children of God: 

   And if children,

then heirs; heirs of God,

and joint-heirs with Christ;

if so be that we suffer with him,

that we may be also glorified together. 

   For I reckon that the sufferings

of this present time

are not worthy to be compared

with the glory

which shall be revealed in us. 

Romans 8:16-18
