Receiving rights that have been signed over to the other parents depends on the circumstances. The best way to approach reversing the rights begins with hiring a lawyer, then evaluating the situation at hand.
It is very unlikely that the court would restore your rights. However, you should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and explain your options, if any.

Not as a custodial parent, but as a guardian of a child in need.
Ok, I am not sure about Georgia. However, I do know that in Arkansas you will be released from jail when you sign your rights over. The steps we took were the custodial parent went and signed off on the back child support saying that I had been giving her cash and the money I was going to have to pay to get out was dropped. Then in return I signed away my rights to her and her new husband so they can move on with their lives. Which she wanted in the first place. The judge signed it and I got released all in the same day.
If you mean, you signed your rights off. That will be very difficult to do. In most states when a parent signs there rights off they have 6 months depending on the situation to change their mind. You will have to prove that you are fit to take care of them, you will also have to prove the people who have them are unfit. Personally, 6 years with no rights is a long time. They have probably adapted to their lifestyle. I'd go about getting some legal advice, but i would also think about their best interest and double check that's what you have in heart.

If the father has parental rights now, the only way he will lose them is by a Court order saying so. A private contract between the parties only that is not signed by a judge and made part of a Court's "order" is not likely to be enforced. In other words, your deal might be OK for as long as the father agrees and has no interests in exercising parental rights, but what if he changes his mind and wants to back off the promises he made and ignore the paper he signed?However, if the parent is agreeable the attorney can have the necessary documents signed and then she/he can bring it before the court.
The adoptive parents must voluntarily relinquish their parental rights and you must seek to have your legal custody restored through the court at the same time.
It will be necessary to enter an order for adoption, yes.
Yes and no. It has to be signed off by a judge, but it's still a contractual agreement.
With court approval and provided welfare is not involved. see links
No. You would be signing away your rights to visitation. A parent generally signs away their rights in preparation for a legal adoption.
Yes you can sign over your rights to the one child and not the others. However on child support you will not have to pay on the one you signed off on but as for the others that you claim yes you will pay. In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.
Only the court can terminate your parental rights and then you are still required to pay child support unless the child is adopted.
