"The Daughter of My King" encourages us to remember that we are daughters of God, and expresses our desire to give away our sins, our fear, and guilt to become like Christ.

 

Words: Toni Thomas     Music: Diane Tuiofu

Verse 1

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

I would give away all my sins to know God;

I would sanctify each moment of my life;

I would strip away the pride that I hide inside

To know His peace, sure and sweet.

I would break the chains of guilt and fear

That fetter me and hold me here.

 

Verse 2

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

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

 

Tag

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

The daughter of my King.
