The Family Of God

William J. Gaither

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 heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod,
For I'm a part of the fam'ly, the fam'ly of God.

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

From the door of an orphanage 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' not worthy to be here, but praise God, I belong.
