  • I am an 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 orphan girl

    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 Writer/s: GILLIAN HOWARD WELCH
