SDA Hymnal number: 468

Key: D

G Em Bm G A D Intro: 3/4 +|+++ |++ +|+++|+++|++My… D 1. My Father is rich in houses and lands, 2. My Father’s own Son, the Savior of men, 3. I once was an outcast, a stranger on earth, 4. A tent or a cottage, O why should I care? A A7 D He holdeth the wealth of the world in His hands! Once wandered on earth as the poorest of them; A sinner by choice, and an alien by birth, They’re building a palace for me over there; G Em Of rubies and diamonds, of silver and gold, But now He is pleading for sinners on high, But I’ve been adopted, my name’s written down, Though exiled from home, yet still I may sing: D Bm A7 D His coffers are full– He has riches untold. And will give me a home when He comes by and by. An heir to a mansion, a robe and a crown. “All glory to God, I’m a child of the King.” D I’m a child of the King, D A child of the King! G Em Bm With Jesus, my Savior, G A D I’m a child of the King!
