Why should the Father bother to call us his children?

Why should the Spirit hear it when we pray?
F  Edim Dm C Bb Am F   Bb   Am           Dm C
Why should the Father bother to be concerned with all our needs?

It's all  because of what the Son has done

C/F Bb/F   Bb        F/A
Once we were lost out on the ocean
      C7      Bb
With no direction or devotion
F/A       Bb         C7
Tossed about by every wind and wave
      Bb         F/A
Now we are in the world, not of it
      C7       Dm  Dm/C
And we can surely rise above it
  Bb     Bb/A Gm7  C7sus4    F Bb/F C/F Bb/F
Because the Lord has risen from the grave


Chorus:

C/F Bb/F   Bb          F/A
Once we were strangers from the promise
    C7           Bb
We were doubters worse than Thomas
F/A       Bb        C7
Till the Spirit opened up our eyes
      Bb       F/A
Now he has offered us adoption
      C7       Dm  Dm/C
And we have taken up the option
  Bb    Bb/A Gm7 C7sus4  F Bb/F C/F Bb/F
To be his family   eternally


Chorus:

F  Edim Dm C  Bb Am  Bb C    F  Bb/C C F
It's all  because of what the Son has done
