Romans 8:9
-
[Rom 8:9] Thy Home Is With The Humble, Lord
Thy home is with the humble, Lord;
The simplest are the best;
Thy lodging is in childlike hearts;
Thou makest there Thy rest.Dear Comforter, eternal Love,
If Thou wilt stay with me,
Of lowly thoughts and simple ways
I’ll build a house for Thee.Who made this beating heart of mine
But Thou, my heavenly Guest?
Let no one have it, then, but Thee,
And let it be Thy rest.Play source: Cyberhymnal
Romans 8:14-17
-
[Rom 8:14] Why Should The Children Of A King
Why should the children of a King
Go mourning all their days?
Great Comforter! descend and bring
Some tokens of Thy grace.Dost Thou not dwell in all the saints,
And seal the heirs of Heav’n?
When wilt Thou banish my complaints,
And show my sins forgiv’n?Assure my conscience of her part
In the Redeemer’s blood;
And bear Thy witness with my heart
That I am born of God.Thou art the earnest of His love,
The pledge of joys to come;
And Thy soft wings, celestial Dove,
Will safe convey me home.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Rom 8:15] Adopted
O what a blessing, how can I express it?
Out of the fullness of rapture I sing,
Now by the Father received and adopted,
I am a child and an heir of a King.Refrain
I am adopted, O wonderful love,
Heir to a heritage purchased above;
Tell it, my soul, and joyfully sing,
I am a child and an heir of a King.O what a Father, how tenderly gracious,
O what a Savior to make me His care;
Tho’ I have slighted, rejected, and grieved Him,
Still He permits me His kingdom to share.Refrain
O the unsearchable riches He giveth,
Riches increasing from day unto day;
Treasures in value all others excelling,
Treasures that never will rust nor decay.Refrain
When I have finished the work He appoints me,
When I have ended my journey below,
Then to my Father and Jesus my Savior,
Home to a beautiful palace I go.Refrain

[Rom 8:16] It’s Real
O how well do I remember
How I doubted day by day,
For I did not know for certain
That my sins were washed away.
When the Spirit tried to tell me,
I would not the truth receive;
I endeavored to be happy
And to make myself believe.Refrain
But it’s real, it’s real!
O I know it’s real
Praise God, the doubts are settled,
For I know, I know it’s real!When the truth came close and searching,
All my joys would disappear,
For I did not have the witness
Of the Spirit bright and clear.
If at times the coming judgment
Would appear before my mind,
O it made me so uneasy,
For God’s smile I could not find.Refrain
When the Lord sent faithful servants
Who would dare to preach the truth,
How my heart did so condemn me
As the Spirit gave reproof!
Satan said at once, “Twill ruin
You now to confess your state;
Keep on working and professing,
And you’ll enter Heaven’s gate.”Refrain
But at last I tired of living
Such a life of fear and doubt,
For I wanted God to give me
Something I would know about,
So the truth would make me happy
And the light would clearly shine,
And the Spirit gave assurance
That I’m His and He is mine.Refrain
So I prayed to God in earnest,
And not caring what folks said.
I was hungry for the blessing;
My pour soul—it must be fed.
Then at last by faith I touched Him
And, like sparks from smitten steel,
Just so quick salvation reached me.
O bless God, I know it’s real!Refrain

[Rom 8:16] O Thou Whose Spirit Witness Bears
O Thou Whose Spirit witness bears
Within our spirits free,
That we Thy children are and heirs
Of Thine eternity.Here may this simple faith sublime
O’er-arch us like the sky;
Secure below the drift of time
Its firm foundations lie.Our thought o’erflows each written scroll
Our creeds arise and fall;
The life of God within the soul
Lives and outlasts them all.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Rom 8:17] A Child Of The King
My Father is rich in houses and lands,
He holdeth the wealth of the world in His hands!
Of rubies and diamonds, of silver and gold,
His coffers are full, He has riches untold.Refrain
I’m a child of the King,
A child of the King:
With Jesus my Savior,
I’m a child of the King.My Father’s own Son, the Savior of men,
Once wandered on earth as the poorest of them;
But now He is pleading our pardon on high,
That we may be His when He comes by and by.Refrain
I once was an outcast stranger on earth,
A sinner by choice, an alien by birth,
But I’ve been adopted, my name’s written down,
An heir to a mansion, a robe and a crown.Refrain
A tent or a cottage, why should I care?
They’re building a palace for me over there;
Though exiled from home, yet still may I sing:
All glory to God, I’m a child of the King.Refrain

Children of the heavenly King,
As ye journey, sweetly sing;
Sing your Savior’s worthy praise,
Glorious in His works and waysWe are traveling home to God,
In the way the fathers trod;

Soon their happiness shall see.O, ye banished seed, be glad!

There your kingdom and reward.Lift your eyes, ye sons of light,

There our endless home shall be,
There our Lord we soon shall see.Fear not, brethren; joyful stand
On the borders of your land;

Bids you undismayed go on.Lord, obedient we would go,
Gladly leaving all below;

In our work and in our play,
Jesus, ever with us stay;
May we always strive to be
True and faithful unto Thee.

We are children of the King.May we in Thy strength subdue
Evil tempers, words untrue,
Thoughts impure, and deeds unkind,
All things hateful to Thy mind.

Try to please Him every day,
In our work and in our play.

When all my labors and trials are o’er,
And I am safe on that beautiful shore,
Just to be near the dear Lord I adore,
Will through the ages be glory for me.Refrain

Glory for me, glory for me,
When by His grace I shall look on His face,

Just to be there and to look on His face,
Will through the ages be glory for me.Refrain

Yet just a smile from my Savior, I know,
Will through the ages be glory for me.Refrain
