CHILD OF THE KING
You are a royal child, a heavenly heir.
Do you not know it? Aren’t you aware?
That in you, your Father delights.
And watches over you each moment of the day and nightAnd every day and night, over you He sings,
because you are a child, A child of the King
You are His son or daughter, a prince or princess,
You are significant, you have an inheritance
Before the world was made, you were on His heart
His love for you is faultless and has been from the start
He will forever comfort you in the shadow of His wing
Because you are a child. A child of the King.
You are a part of a Strong, large family
You are a soldier in a vast and mighty army
He has plans to prosper you, and not to harm
He will secure you safe in His loving arm
And countless blessings to you each day he will bring
Because you are a child, a child of the king
You have authority and you have power
In His name, your safe strong tower
Put your confidence in Him, who created all
Put your trust in the One who picks you up when you fall
Confide in Your father who is interested in everything
Because you are a child, a child of the King
You are cared for by the one who named the stars
You are beautiful, just the way you are.
And just the way you are is the way He made you
You were designed perfectly to fulfil the task He has for you
He knows what the future for You will bring.
Because you are a child. A child of the king
The One who holds creation, wants to hold your hand
He wants to lead and guide, as you seek His plan
He wants you to ask, because he wants to give
And bless you, as for Him, each day you live
Can you hear the cry of Heaven? The sound of Great rejoicing
Because you are a child. A child of the King
