The Family Of God

Tom: C

          F                             G
I'm so glad I'm a part of the family of God
          C
I've been washed in the fountain
C               F
cleansed by His blood!
                             G
Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod
    C                           C         F
For I'm part of the family, the family of God


[Verse 1]
F
You will notice we say "brother
F
and sister" 'round here-
C
It's because we're a family
C                      F
and these folks are so near;
F
When one has a heartache
F
we all share the tears,
C
And rejoice in each victory
C                 F
In this family so dear


[Chorus]
          F                             G
I'm so glad I'm a part of the family of God
          C
I've been washed in the fountain
C               F
cleansed by His blood!
                             G
Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod
    C                           C         F
For I'm part of the family, the family of God


[Verse 2]
F
From the door of an orphanage
F
to the house of the King-
C
No longer an outcast,
C            F
a new song I sing;
F
From rags unto riches,
F
from the weak to the strong,
C
I'm not worthy to be here,
C                  F
But, praise God, I belong!
