Next of Kin
Many people, they spend a lifetime forever searching,
Who they are, their family history.
Never knowing, by salvation, they're adopted.
Next of kin, that's what Jesus is to me.
Chorus:
Next of kin, there's no other in between us.
I'm next in line, in the royal family.
By the blood, you see, Jesus is my brother.
Next of kin, that's what Jesus is to me.
As a child, my Daddy taught me all about Jesus.
At our table, a place for Him was set.
He said, "Son, without Him, you're just an orphan."
Down on my knees, that's where I met my next of kin.
Chorus:
Next of kin, there's no other in between us.
I'm next in line, in the royal family.
By the blood, you see, Jesus is my brother.
Next of kin, that's what Jesus is to me.
Chorus:
Next of kin, there's no other in between us.
I'm next in line, in the royal family.
By the blood, you see, Jesus is my brother.
Next of kin, that's what Jesus is to me.
