Children of God


Children of God

In primary each week we all have sung
“I am a Child of God” since we were young.
That song teaches us to whom we belong
And how God loves us as one of His throng.

Wow, the divine heritage from being His child
Instead of inexplicably coming from the wild.
And having God as our Heavenly Father
Helps us realize that Christ is truly our Brother.

This knowledge can help you understand
How you fit in to God’s salvation plan.
And that you’ve got royalty in your lineage
And that you were made in His very image.

God loves you and watches over you,
Just like a dad loves you ‘til he’s blue.
God cheers when you triumph over wrong
And cries with you when you’re not so strong.

This knowledge helps you also see
Others as His child also, knowing He’s
Blessing each one of his children
Though they number in the billions.

Just like we sang in primary each week
“I am a Child of God” since we were young.
That song teaches truth to whom we belong
And how he loves us as one of His throng.

Please always remember to hold onto the rod,
And just as important, That you are a child of God!
