Adopted

Author: Frances Jane (Fanny) Crosby Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #31 First Line: O what a blessing, how can I express it? Refrain First Line: I am adopted, O wonderful love Lyrics: 1. 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. 2. 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] 3. 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] 4. 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] Languages: English Tune Title: [O what a blessing, how can I express it?]
