The Family Of God - Gaither, Bill Gaither

and sister" 'round here-

It’s because we’re a family

and these folks are so near;

When one has a heartache

we all share the tears,

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 heirs with Jesus

as we travel this sod,

For I’m part of the family,

the family of God.

(2) 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’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 heirs with Jesus

as we travel this sod,

For I’m part of the family,

the family of God.

Yes I’m part of the family,

the family of God.
