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 / Chorus / 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 for- bid / 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're more than just my friend / Chorus / You are Father, God Almighty / Lord of Lords, You're King of Kings / Beyond my understanding / No less than everything / Chorus / God forbid / God forbid *From the album LIFE LOVE & OTHER MYSTERIES*
