Acapella became a foundation of our worship as a young people of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, it's engrained in me. Whenever I listen to this music group, I feel home.. I feel closer to God. Thank you for allowing God to use you in such a powerful way🙌
Lyrics to Abba FatherSomebody feels hopeless Somebody despairs Somebody walks a path alone Watching others walk around in pairs Somebody's in the street now Somebody's in doubt Somebody has no place to go Somebody cries out saying Abba, Father, take me higher Abba, Father, take me home Somebody is hungry Somebody's in pain Somebody sleeps alone in fear Somebody's in shame Somebody needs a friend to lean on Somebody's not there Somebody's looking at the end Somebody's in prayer, praying Chorus: Abba, Father, take me higher [You're not alone (know you're not) Somebody's there (you know we've got) The Lord to guide our way To help us make it through the day] Abba, Father, take me home [You're not alone (know you're not) Somebody's there (you know we've got) The Lord our Father to take us home Take us home, Father, take us home, Father] Abba, Father Repeat Chorus (x2) Take me home Take me home, Father Father please, take me home Abba, Father Scriptural Reference: "For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, 'Abba, Father.' The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory." Romans 8:15-17 (1-17 cited on insert) "Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit woh calls out, 'Abba, Father.'" Galatians 4:6
Cara, sei que o que vou perguntar não tem nada haver com o vídeo, mas estou procurando alguém que queira trabalhar a conversação de igles / português. Sou brasileiro e gostaria aprender o inglês. Se conhecer alguém que tope passa o contato. abraços.
I can remember being 10 years old, and just moving to China for missionary work for 3 years the first time I heard it. It was my favorite then, and still my favorite now ❤️
I am grateful to say that I am a born again Christian and have been since I was 19.......folks these days are getting darker and Christ is coming soon and if you don’t know Christ as your savior then it burdens my soul to think that you are headed for a terrible place called Hell where the Bible says the fire is never quenched and the worm dies not! it is not me but the Holy Spirit that I pray reveals to you the truth of his precious gospel......John 3:16 says for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes on him will not perish but have everlasting life! V 17 says then V 18 says whoever believes on the son is not condemned but whoever does not believe on the son is condemned already because he has not believed on the son whom God has sent! Also Acts 16:30-31 what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house I am not threatening anyone but just warning them what will happen if they reject this precious gift of eternal life! Christ died a horrible criminals death! He was beaten brutally mocked spit upon and endured countless hours of torture pain for all of our sins! Ppl go to hell because they reject that pardon for their sins! And Jesus is saying to them in Matthew 25:41 depart from me you cursed into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels! Hell was only prepared for Satan and his angels! It is not God who threatens anyone it is the craziness of rejecting the free pardon of salvation! It’s like if you’re in court you’ve committed a crime say you murdered someone! Now if you say to that Judge hey I know I’ve done a terrible thing of murdering that person but I hear you’re a good judge and so I know you’ll be fair to me...... the judge is going to reply well yes you’re right about one thing I am a good judge and because I’m a good judge I’m going to see to it that you’re punished and that justice is served! Well then all of a sudden someone you don’t even know comes forward and says you know what I know he’s committed the crime he’s committed and he deserves to go to jail but I really don’t want to see him go to prison so I’ll just go to prison for him so he can go free! So if you accepted that offer you’d be free to leave the courtroom but if you didn’t well you’d be crazy and go to prison yourself! Well that’s exactly how it was 2,000 years ago! He is God in human flesh and he came to this earth lived a perfect sinless life and even though he knew that we had sinned and because of our sins deserved to die miserably but he said no I don’t want to see them suffer so I will go and take their punishment for them! Even though he did absolutely nothing wrong still he chose to take the punishment for our sins so we can be set free from the power bondages and consequences of our disobedience to God! Romans 5:8 says For God commends his love toward us that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us! 1 John 2:2 says he was made to be the propitiation for our sins! And not just for our sins but the sins of the whole world! 2 Corinthians 5:21 He who knew no sin became Sin for us that we would be made his righteousness! The truth is if you had to get to Heaven by your own effort then you cannot do it! Because Romans 3:10 says there is not one that does good! No Not One! Romans 3:23 says For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God! Romans 6:23 says For the wages of sin is death! But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our lord! But the good news is Romans 10:9 If we confess with our mouth and believes in our hearts that Christ died for our sins then was raised from the dead we will be saved! V 10 For it’s with the heart we believe and it’s with the mouth confession is made unto salvation! God gave us 10 commandments to follow and we’ve broken every one of them! And because God is a good God he cannot allow our disobedience to him to go unpunished! Well then like I just mentioned above his son Jesus stepped forward and said no I don’t want to see them punished so I will take their punishment for them! And also like I said he died a terrible substitute criminal’s death for us on a cross so now all we have to do is accept that payment for our sins and we can escape the terrible wrath of God that is to fall on them who do not accept this atonement that was sacrificed for our sins! Praise the lord Romans 10:13 says Whoever calls on the name of the lord shall be saved! And 1 Peter 1:4 you’re an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you! Christ clearly said in John 14:6 I am the way the truth and the life and no one comes to the father but through me! Acts 4:12 clearly states that there is no other name given unto Heaven or earth by which we must be saved as there is salvation in no other! Jesus clearly states that there is clearly only one way to Salvation and it’s him that’s it! There is no other way! God Bless everyone who reads!
This song is so good!!So touching...Keith Lancaster, the song producer is part of Accapella..They came to a Church of Christ, near us in the 1980s,!! They've been all over the world!! Love them!!❤️🤗
This will never grow old... When I'm spiritually disoriented I always recall this song... Good is good all the time... ❤❤and it always reminds me of what I need to be grateful for...
Acappella came to one of the Church of Christs' near our home in the Detroit Michigan area back in the 1980's and we were blessed to have a couple of the guys stay at our house while they were on tour!! They are still performing, along with Praise and Harmony, and a few other groups.AVB, was really good too..These guy's can sing!!.And what's so beautiful is they are singing to God, which makes it that much more powerful!! 💗❤️💗

Wow just beautiful, sad but beautiful! Dear Heavenly Father please send blessings to all the needy, lonely and persecuted around the world! He truly is an awesome and mercicul God!
Great stuff keith, in my continent Africa and in my home country Cameroon Acappella practice is on a steady rise in our christian churches. I strongly believe it is because some good guys like you take time to impact good christian music in the Acappella genre. May God continue to inspire you. Abba Father is just Awesome!
its not believable that man can make melodies like this one, sometimes i don't think these are ordinary man. i love these guys when i get rich i want these man to come visit us in Namibia,
Hello Mr. Lancaster, It is an honor to have this means to express to you how much your music, I believe inspired by God, has ministered to me as a young man. I really appreciate the music. God bless, I from Jamaica, we love your music. I am a Seventh-day Adventist minister, but I have been listening to Acappella music since the early 90s. Big fan, God bless, hope we can meet whether here on earth or in Heaven.
Hi Pastor Lancaster, I am also adventist from Kenya and it is always a blessing each Sabbath to receive blessed harmonic pieces from legendry groups such assembled by Keith Lancaster!
i have the voice and do sing regularly with my group called the Nobles Acappella. all we wish for is to get more exposure from Cameroon. visit us on facebook through (sixnobles) someday we could do it big.
Jesus, Jesus Lord, save your people. May your name resound above all names, and kings, in the lands where it is forbidden to worship you. Deliver the people Lord Jesus
Hunger, fear, addictions, hopelesness, hatred, racism, doubt, etc. are all spiritual attacks in the form of physical circumstances, by the devil, to keep our focus off of CHRIST...our fight is the good fight which is to LOVE...LOVE ALL...no matter who they are, where they are from, how they look, how rich or poor they are, how young or old, how "pretty or ugly" they are, what size they are...this what JESUS wants us to realize. The devil works in the flesh. So every physical woe you suffer is the devil trying to make you focus on that feeling, which our LORD JESUS CHRIST already defeated. Our SPIRIT is in the image of CHRIST, when you speak from the spirit which is CHRIST you speak your native tongue, which is the language of LOVE!!! look up the definition of love and see if you see any negativity. The definition of love goes on and on and on in different words but same meaning and its all good, and it's all GOD. LOVE everything and everyone. GOD BLESS.
from the time I listened to a cappella rescue album in 2001 l have been inspired by your music so much.you guys you're awesome.lm not an advent but l listen and sing to your songs like am one,God really bless you for touching many lives.
I love this song ..o remembered the first time o sang it with my a cappella group caller The Triumphant it was amazing listening to these songs let me even miss my group even more so sad but amazing.. God bless you all ..Amen.
Foram os melhores momentos da minha vida, quando eu era de Um Octeto Harmonia Accapella aqui em São Paulo, zona Leste, Itaim Paulista, Igreja Adventista do Sétimo dia. Saudades de Cantar esses hinos de inspiração Dos Anjos, como fomos chamados em um Templo da Igreja Quadragular. Momentos Memoráveis.
Amém, irmão. Tenho ótimas recordações na IASD de outrora. Também cantando hinos, indo à programações de JA e Desbravadores. E voltei a cerca de 2 anos à igreja.
