[...] Though I Was Born an Orphan by Eric Schumacher & David L. Ward – Eric and David wrote this hymn specifically for churches to use in worship. They write, “If God the Father has blessed us with this great and altogether undeserved adoption, we will show like care to “orphans and widows in their affliction.” In application of the Gospel, Christians become people who display the greatness of their Father through their care for those in need.” Possibly related posts: (automatically generated)No Title10 Ways to Pastor Adoptive ParentsRecommended Adoption BooksThe return of the hymn?

I am interested in Orphan Sunday as I am a missionary currently on deputation to go to Honduras to work with the orphans. The need is great!

I am so excited about this hymn! 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~
