The repetition of "no, not one" shows God's all-encompassing compassion and love for the world.

May no one refuse the gift He offers after the reading-through of this hymn!

Open your heart to its truth and listen to God.

This hymn came to mind after reading Psm 34. This hymn is especially good when we think about how we may be physically separated from friends and family, we are not separated from our ascended Lord.
