I Know Whose I AM

I am God’s child; I know I am

I am adopted of God

Through a wonderful plan.

God is my Father; I know He is

He chose me for family

What wonderful bliss!

I am an heir; His word says I am

A joint-heir with Christ

On His word I stand.

I cry Abba Father and He hears

Giving me an audience

To show that He cares.

I go to Him and bare all my heart

I tell Him my cares

Beginning from the start.

He listens intently and then replies

“I am here my child;

I have heard your cries.”

Help is on the way; you’ll soon see

My promises are sure

You can count on me.

Trust me my child; not your eyes

Just walk by faith

Focus beyond the skies.”

I am God’s child; I know I am

I am adopted of God

Through a wonderful plan.

The Spirit gave witness; I am saved

My spirit received it

And I was amazed.

I walk in the way; He shows it to me

The way of righteousness

He points and I see.

Sometimes I fall; he picks me up

Brushes off my knees

Then tends my cuts.

No longer a prodigal; I am His own

Rescued from the wilds

I have access to His throne.

His Spirit is in me; I know for a fact

He guides me along

The most difficult track.

I’m encouraged yet sometimes I fear

But He assures me

That He is always near.

The devil tempts me but I am assured

My father is with me

And I trust Him the more.

I must trust no other, no not ever

My Father walks with me

He will leave me never.

I am God’s child; I know I am

I am adopted of God

Through a wonderful plan.

Do you know whose you are?

I trust that you do

For then you’d be a joint-heir

Like I am too.

God would be your Father

And you’d be His child

Through His wondrous redemption

We would be eternally satisfied.
