Abba (father) (1996) Lyrics - St. James Rebecca

I'm feeling like the eagle that rises 

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 

CHORUS: 

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 rain 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 on You Jesus 

Oh Father (Abba) - You are my strength 

Now more than ever 

CHORUS 

When you've run too 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... 

CHORUS 

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
