We were just discussing at our church, after a study through the chapter in Knowing God about our sonship, the fact that there is only one hymn in our hymn book (Trinity Hymnal, Baptist Edition) that even briefly touches on our own adoption. As we seek to begin an Orphan Ministry in our church this is PERFECT! Thank you so much~ I am so excited about this hymn!
