When in its fullness, time had come, God sent the sole be-got-ten son
born of a woman, under law. Born to re-deem the lost.
—–
We’ve been adopted as God’s own. Therefore we now, to God, belong.
Christ’s Spirit dwelling in our lives, to “Abba, Father” cries.
—–
No longer slaves, but children we. Eternally we’ve been set free.
Joint heirs with Jesus, we with he, can live eternally.
