The Daughter of My King

"'The Daughter of My King' expresses the truth that we as women are daughters of God, created in His image, to accomplish many good things. As we strive to give away our sins, let go of pride, and seek to become like Christ, we can be filled with His love and peace. "The King's daughter is all glorious within..." (Psalms 45:13). "The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together" (Romans 8:16-17).

Verse one

When I consider who I am,

The daughter of a king;

Created in His image,

To accomplish holy things;

When I consider all the grace

And wonder I survey

I stand in awe at the love of God

That surrounds me ev'ry day

And I long to know His ways.

 

Chorus one (use)

I (would) [will] give away all my sins to know God;

I (would) [will] sanctify each moment of my life;

I (would) [will] strip away the pride that I hide inside

To know His peace, sure and sweet.

I (would) [will] break the chains of guilt and fear

That fetter me and hold me here.

Verse two

When I've forgotten who I am,

The covenants I've made,

And cannot see the purpose

In the heartache that I face;

When I've forgotten that the worth

Of ev'ry soul is great;

That Christ paid the price with His sacrifice

To take my pain away,

Still God remembers, and He waits
 

Chorus two

For me to give away my sins and know Him;

To sanctify that moment of my life;

To strip away the pride that I hide inside

And choose His peace, sure and sweet.

To break the chains of guilt and fear

That fetter me and hold me here.

Repeat Chorus one [use]

 

Tag

Because I want to be in ev'ry way, in ev'rything

The daughter of my King.
