I Do Not Take It Lightly

I do not take it lightly

That the One I love most in life

And who knows me more than I know myself

Is the Lord God Almighty

Creator of heaven and earth.

I do not take it lightly

That He loved me enough

To send His Son to give me life

And give me ears to hear

And eyes to see.

I do not take it lightly

That I have open and free communion

With the God who created the world

And everything in it

And that He loves being one with me.

I do not take it lightly

That I once was blind but now I see

That I once was dead but now I am alive

That someday He will come again

And I will dwell with Him, in His kingdom

Forever and ever.

I do not take it lightly.
