112.  The Family of God

 

I'm so glad I'm a part of the fam'ly of God; I've been washed in the fountain, Cleansed by his blood! Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod, For I'm part of the fam'ly, the fam'ly of God.

1.

You will notice we say brother and sister 'round here, It's because we're a fam'ly and these folks are so dear, When one has a heartache we all share the tears, And rejoice in each vict'ry in this fam'ly so dear.

I'm so glad I'm a part of the fam'ly of God; I've been washed in the fountain, Cleansed by his blood!  Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod, For I'm part of the fam'ly, the fam'ly of God.

2.

From the door of an orph'nage to the house of the King, No longer an outcast, a new song I sing; From rags unto riches, from the weak to the strong, I'm not worthy to be here, but praise God I belong!

I'm so glad I'm a part of the fam'ly of God; I've been washed in the fountain, Cleansed by his blood! Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod, For I'm part of the fam'ly, the fam'ly of God.
