193. We’re Children of the King

1 We have a loving Father,
His praises we will sing;
His love is like no other,
We’re children of the King.

Refrain:
We’ll sing His praise in glory,
Glad hearts will tribute bring;
As they repeat the story,
We’re children of the King.

2 How can we help but love Him,
He did salvation bring;
From every stain He cleanses,
We’re children of the King. [Refrain]

3 Our heats with joy are swelling,
As we our tribute bring;
Of love to Him indwelling,
We’re children of the King. [Refrain]

4 Come, help us swell the chorus,
And make His praises ring;
His blood it has redeemed us,
We’re children of the King. [Refrain]

5 Then we shall know no sadness,
While we to Jesus cling;
All peace and joy and gladness,
We’re children of the King. [Refrain]
