CAPO 1

VERSE 1
G                        D
I am an orphan, on Godâs highway
                  G                   C
But Iâll share my troubles, if you go my way
          G          D          G          C
I have no mother, no father, no sister, no brother
G        D      G
I am an orphan girl

VERSE 2
I have had friendships, pure and golden
But the ties of kinship, I have not know them
I know no mother, no father, no sister, no brother
I am an orphan girl

VERSE 3
But when he calls me, I will be able
To meet my family, at Godâs table
Iâll meet my mother, my father, my sister, my brother
No more an orphan girl

VERSE 4
Blessed savior, make me willing
And walk beside me, until Iâm with them
Be my mother, my father, my sister, my brother
I am an orphan girl
