ABBA FATHER
a spiritual
intimacy song
of adoration
In Jesus we come to You.
In our hearts Your Spirit moves.
We Your little children
Come in adoration.

Draw me nearer

Just sitting here at your feet,
Quite contented just to be
Resting in your presence,
Safe, secure, protected.

History & Testimonies
From
1986 to 1999, Rev. Wayne Anderson led a series
of spiritual intimacy seminars at Crossroads in Framingham.
Among the topics covered were "Abba Father"
"Grace, Faith and Focus" and "Silence, Solitude and
Prayer".
This song, and many others, were inspired by those teachings.
The first
verse was started during a Wayne Anderson seminar
and later completed at my home in Milford.
The second verse was written 9/29/89
while driving through Ashland MA.
(Ralph Merrifield)
I was looking for songs for my Sunday School class...
these sound very interesting.
I sing some of them during devotion
services.
I am a Sunday School teacher and deaconess in a Baptist Church
I use " Center Of My Soul"... it is truly
beautiful. Also " Abba Father",
" Bringing
The Presence Of Jesus",
" Holy, Holy, Holy"
and " Open My Eyes".
(Cora, from Massachusetts)
"This one is very
useful. We love it..."
(Philip, from South Africa)
Recorded on:
"In The Knowledge Of Him"
"Closest Friends"
