Abba |ˈäbä; ˈabä|
noun
(in the New Testament) an intimate term for God as father.
ORIGIN via Greek from Aramaic ‛abbā ‘daddy.’
I wrote this song from a prayer of Brennan Manning in his book "The Furious Longing of God." The prayer is just five simple words: Abba, I belong to you. He tells you to take this prayer into a quiet place and with the rhythm of the your breathing inhale Abba and exhale I belong to you. As I began to pray this prayer the love of God began to wreck my heart. I realized that Jesus began a revolution with one word. When he said the word Father he changed everything. Now he has invited us into this reality, into this place of belonging. To call God our Daddy, our Papa, our Abba.
