We're going to sing a song now that's entitled I'm No Longer an Orphan.
I'm glad that God set up an adoption plan for the Gentile people [A] one day.
Just to tell you just a little bit about this song, the reason I wrote the song.
My daughter and son-in-law adopted a little 11-year-old girl from Russia two years ago,
and boy, that's been a blessing to our family in so many ways.
But the little girl's been through so much, and when she came here, boy, she was certainly
an orphan, no question about that.
But Jimmy and Tracy, my son-in-law and daughter, they prepared a place for her.
You see, the Lord said he's going to go away and prepare a place for us.
Christina had heard that she'd been adopted in America, and she knew that somebody was
coming after her, but she didn't know when.
[B] [D] They [F] [A] worked a year preparing a place for that child, and I never will forget, Randy, the
night they came home with her.
Jimmy couldn't wait to show her that, that he prepared for her.
But I got to thinking about that, rolling those things over in my mind, and that's where
the thought for this song comes from.
Thank God I'm no longer an orphan.
[E] [A]
Well,
[E] [A]
once my clothes were ragged, the world [E] looked down on [A] me, and I had no hope for tomorrow,
nor for [E] [A] eternity.
Then grace came with mercy and heard [E] this [A] orphan's plea, and now I've been adopted.
From [E] bondage I've been [A] set free, and now I'm no longer an orphan.
Someone [E] has [A] rescued me.
My garments no longer are tattered.
My family is royalty.
[C#m] [A]
That's real.
Remember this night very well.
I came so empty-handed, no place [E] to call [A] my home, and no one to really love me.
Oh, but now [E] look what [A] I own.
I'm feasting on the manna that comes [E] from God [D] on high, [A]
and there is no shortage.
There [E] is a [A] vast supply, and now I'm no longer an orphan.
Someone [E] has [A] rescued me.
My garments no longer are tattered.
My family [E] is [A] royalty.
And now I'm no longer an orphan.
Someone [E] has [A] rescued me.
My garments no longer are tattered.
My family [E] is [A] royalty.
