LIGHTER THAN AIR

A ton or two of love... poured
From the heart of God, lighter
Than than the air I breathe, but
Heavy with the weight of sin you

Purified my wayward heart, your
Holiness came in, and the loss
You suffered sealed my fate with
Tons of love, lighter than the air I

Breathe, infusing me with assurance
That you'd welcome me into God's
Family, and purely by your grace you
Gave...took my place! Now, I accept

Your gift of tons of love, lighter than
The air I breathe, YOU fill my being with
Your Holy Spirit, freely pouring from the
Outside, to your newness on the inside,

Tons of love lighter than the air I breathe!

Lighter than the air I breathe, as He breathes into me the presence of God. By his grace I accept the extreme LOVE that God gave to me through the Son shedding his blood for the sins of man, which keep us separated from God. His redemption flows into me and is light, not a burden. It brings great joy, not sorrow. He took my sorrow upon himself and was made low so that man didn't have to remain sinful. The Holy Spirit breathes into me his life, which is lighter than air with joy and celebration. It's not heavy or burdensome. -- Cheryl
