From the beginning, Scripture tells the story of the restoration of the children of God
Let's get in it
Dude, please turn the page
Adam was a human son of God it says in Luke 3:38
He was made in His likeness, created as righteous
As God's son, he knew His embrace and His brightness
But Adam's sin so exiled from His presence
Plus his sin now has defiled his descendents
So Israel was God's son, out of Egypt I called you
And so were the kings of Judah, read it in Psalm 2
But they all were exiled for their wicked grievous sins
Disqualified from sons by their disobedience
But we're all God's children often they echo
But by nature we're children of wrath, our father's the devil
And he wanted our death like we're his abortions
Cut off from the Father, spiritual orphans
No rights as sons, any righteous? None
The Father's only pleased with what Christ has done
Oh, what great love is this
That the Father gave his obedient Son to take the punishment?
For the sons of disobedience
So our new status as sons is won, he gives us Jesus's
See what kind of love that the Father's given us
So we live it up as sons with privileges
See what kind of love that the Father's given us
We've been forgiven much so our life, we give it up
Christ was baptized then you hear the Father speak this
This is my Son in whom I'm well pleased with
His words were certain, was born of a virgin
He surely was perfect, yeah the worthiest servant
The Son was with the Father in eternity past
He perfectly grasped His role as Son
You can check His purpose and path
Was intimate with the Father, he worshiped and fast
All of His day he always obeyed
Honest like Abe, we deserved to be smashed
He was offering praise but then He fervently asked
For the cup to pass but the Father was turning His back
He was cursed on behalf of us so we wouldn't burn in the chaff
Yet He averted His wrath and Satan the serpent was smashed
Now I can go to the Father and make my fears known
Jesus is God's Son, not Nasir Jones
My Lord is blood-dripped and it poured abundant
His work on the cross is surely what secures our sonship
Oh, what great love is this
That the Father gave his obedient Son to take the punishment?
For the sons of disobedience
So our new status as sons is won, he gives us Jesus's
See what kind of love that the Father's given us
So we live it up as sons with privileges
See what kind of love that the Father's given us
We've been forgiven much so our life, we give it up
My thoughts are wild, yeah they're rotten, foul
I know my sins list long but Christ tossed the files
By faith in Him, I'm an adopted child
Plus thanks to Him, I always have the Father's smile
Christ pleased the Father, he is the Potter
The sonship includes the ladies because she's His daughter
He is so mighty, I seem so tiny
But His Word says I am an heir, no Nike
The fullness of the kingdom that He's building abroad
Is for the freedom of the glory of the children of God
Raised up in the glorified bodies He bought them
Sons of God in the fullness of adoption
We'll praise the Father for His works, believer
In the New Earth, the Son will be our worship leader
Towards His children, yo He'll never have disgust
Cause His love for His Son is the love He has for us
Oh, what great love is this
That the Father gave his obedient Son to take the punishment?
For the sons of disobedience
So our new status as sons is won, he gives us Jesus's
See what kind of love that the Father's given us
So we live it up as sons with privileges
See what kind of love that the Father's given us
We've been forgiven much so our life, we give it up
Say Abba (Abba!) Father (Father!)
Daddy (Daddy!) Gladly (Gladly!)
Yeah so bangin' because God the Son became the perfect human son of God that Adam and then Israel were supposed to be. And through His death and resurrection, He qualifies us to be sons and daughters of the Father and He's given us the Spirit of adoption to know the Father's love and be conformed into the image of the Son
Yo, that's rowdy!
Praise the Father!
