There is a song that plays through my head from time to time. I can still remember the first moment I ever heard it and how the feeling of sheer "awe" was so overpowering. I fell in love with the lyrics right then and have been singing it in my heart ever since. It speaks to me now more then ever with the prospect of adopting becoming more real. I hope you as well will hear the song and be mesmerized.
"Orphans of God" by Avalon
Who here among us has not been broken
Who here among us is without guilt or pain
So oft' abandoned by our transgressions
If such a thing as grace exists
Then grace was made for lives like this
Chorus:
There are no strangers
There are no outcasts
There are no orphans of God
So many fallen, but hallelujah
There are no orphans of God
Come ye unwanted and find affection
Come all ye weary, come and lay down your head
Come ye unworthy, you are my brother
If such a thing as grace exists
Then grace was made for lives like this
Chorus
O blessed Father, look down upon us
We are Your children, we need Your love
We run before Your throne of mercy
And seek Your face to rise above
Blessings,
Lea
