Spirit of Adoption

 

The Spirit cries out Abba Father!

Once from the cross

And now from our hearts

The Spirit cries out Abba Father

Spirit of God's Son

Abide in our innermost parts!

 

You opened the door into grace

And made us a standing place

Spirit of Sonship, conform us anew

Our firstborn brother- we want to look like You!

 

Behold what manner of Love

That we are called God's Sons

By the Spirit of Adoption

We are the favored ones

 

Abba Father- we cry out

Abba Father-  on you fall

Abba Father- We shall shout

On your name we call

 

Behold what manner of Love

That we are called God's Sons

By the Spirit of Adoption

We are the favored ones
