God Forbid

This song is exactly how I feel right now. It varies between talking about everyone or myself, but I venture to say the majority of the time is just trying to get me to realize how truly awesome God is. Thank you, Point of Grace!

The more I know your power, Lord, the more I'm mindful--how casually we speak and sing Your name, how often we have come to You with no fear or wonder, and called upon You only for what we stand to gain. God forbid that I find You so familiar that I think of You as less than who You are. God forbid that I should speak of You at all without a humble reverence in my heart. God forbid.
Lord, I often talk about Your love and mercy, how it seems to me Your goodness has no end. It frightens me to think that I could take You for granted. Though You're closer than a brother, You are more than just my friend. God forbid that I find You so familiar that I think of You as less than who You are. God forbid that I should speak of You at all without a humble reverence in my heart. God forbid.
You are Father, God Almighty, Lord of lords, You're the King of kings, beyond my understanding, no less than everything! God forbid that I find You so familiar that I think of You as less than who You are. God forbid that I should speak of You at all without a humble reference in my heart. God forbid!
