her is rich in houses and lands,
He holdeth the wealth of the world in His hands!
Of rubies and diamonds, of silver and gold
His coffers are full, He has riches untold
(Chorus)
I’m a chi
ld of the King,
a child of the King;
with Jesus my Savior,
I'm a child of the King
(Verse)
My Fath
er’s own Son, the Savior from sin,
once wandered o’er earth as the poorest of men
But now He is reigning for ever on high,
and will give me a home in heav’n by and by
(Verse)
I on
ce was an outcast, stranger on earth,
a sinner by choice, a stranger by birth!
But I've been adopted, my name’s written down,
an heir to a mansion, a robe and a crown
(Verse)
A te
nt or a cottage, why should I care?
They’re building a palace for me over there!
Though exiled from home, yet still I may sing:
all glory to God, I’m a child of the King
