Abba (Father)
Rebecca St. James · The Ultimate Collection [2008]
Flies above the earth and its troubles
Oh yes he knows that there are valleys below
But under his wings there's a stronger power
Oh Father- You are my strength
On you I wait upon
Chrous:
You make the road rise up to meet me
You make the sun shine warm upon my face
The wind is at my back & the ran falls soft
God I lift You high -- You are my Abba
Running in this race to the finish line
The only road for me is the narrow
Not gonna stop or even look to the side
When I fix my eyes upon You Jesus
Oh Father (Abba) - you are my strength
Now more then ever
Chorus
Repeat
When you've run to far - and the road is long
Can't walk another mile - He is waiting
Hope in Him again - He'll renew you
Then you will rise, gather up your wings and fly...
Chrous
Repeat
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
He gives strength to the weary
To those who hope in Him
They will soar like eagles
