I am a child of the kingdom come

And the angel asked,
as I reached the gate of heaven,
"why do you think
you deserve to walk through
this gate of the promise land?"

And I say:
This is where I belong,
I live here.
This is my Father's kingdom.

This is where I belong,
Safe from the cold of life's winter,
Circled in the warm embrace
of the King.

For I am a child of the kingdom come,
This is where I belong.
