Story Behind The Song
I revisited an earlier song, 2006, Daughters of the King, which I wrote upon request, for a women's retreat themed on Gal 4:1-4. Now wanting to advance it musically from more elementary writing, I studied Galatians beyond the original focused 4 verses and got the "bigger picture". The result is a brand new song - Abba We Cry.
Song Description
Galatians 3 and 4 speak about heirs of the KIng and the steps God made to make it happen. This song puts it in common language.

Lyrics
Abba We Cry
When the fullness of time was come ,God sent forth his son
appointed the promise was he
to redeem those once lost who now at the cross crying
Abba cast their crowns at his feet
Free were the seed of Abraham
Abba We Cry, sons and daughters of the King
heirs through Christ Abba We Cry
Abba We Cry filled with your spirit, de-
voted to you Abba We Cry
By faith revealed from behind the shield were
believers justified
Adopted as sons by heaven's holy one we cry
Father Abba We Cry
Abba We Cry, sons and daughters of the King
heirs through Christ Abba We Cry
Abba We Cry filled with your spirit, de-
voted to you Abba We Cry
Abba We Cry, sons and daughters of the King
heirs through Christ Abba We Cry
Abba We Cry filled with your spirit, de-
voted to you Abba We Cry
