Children of the Heavenly Father Safely in His bosom gather Nestling bird nor star in heaven Such a refuge e'er was given Neither life nor death shall ever From the Lord His children sever Unto them His grace He showeth And their sorrows all He knoweth What kind of love the Father's given That we be called Children of God How great the love the Father's given To the Children of God That's what we are Though He giveth or He taketh God His children ne'er forsaketh His the loving purpose solely To preserve them pure and holy What kind of love the Father's given That we be called Children of God How great the love the Father's given To the Children of God What kind of love the Father's given That we've called Children of God How great the love the Father's given To the Children of God That's what we are Children of God That's what we are Children of God
