Lyrics

I am a orphan On God's highway But I'll share my troubles If you go my way I have no mother No father No sister No brother I am an orphan girl I have had friendships Pure and golden But the ties of kinship I have not known them I know no mother No father No sister No brother I am an orphan girl But when he calls me I will be able To meet my family At God's table I'll meet my mother My father My sister My brother No more an orphan girl So, blessed savior Make me willing And walk beside me Until I'm with them Be my mother My father My sister My brother I am an orphan girl Be my mother My father My sister My brother I am an orphan girl I am an orphan girl
