Blood-Kin
by Roger Montgomery ã
Ive been searching my past
Wondering about my kin
Wondering about my family
Wondering where we might have been.
Where did we come from
Before the present were living in
Wondering where were going
Me and my next of kin.
Wonder if theres anyone famous
Maybe some important man
Who knows who Im related to
Wonder whos my next of kin.
Ive wondered about God
His dealing with men
Wonder if He thinks its important
That we find our blood-kin.
Ive been checking my families past
Not much to show for my past, but then
I found out Im kin to royalty
Ive discover Jesus and I, were blood-kin.
They say God came to earth
Came down to be a mortal man
And He claims He knows me by heart
He and I are blood-kin.
Ive read in the Bible about Jesus
He was a God man
He surprised the people of His day
And to my surprise, were blood-kin
Jesus was born 2,000 years ago
Into this world were living in
We have the same Father
So we must be blood-kin.
If we have the same Father
You might say Im His brother then
If He is my brother
Then we must be blood-kin.
Jesus talks to me
Hey, theres a book written about Him
Hes kinda famous you know
And hey, were blood-kin.
Spiritual breakthroughs may seem confusing
At least to a natural man
How can someone born 2,000 years ago
Be a brother, blood-kin.
I have a lot of brothers
In this world Im living in
Ive been studying my bloodline
And theyre all my blood-kin.
Hey, why dont you check your past
You may be in for a surprise then
We may have a lot in common
Who knows, we may be blood-kin.
