I cannot get beyond his love

Author: Mrs. Frank A. Breck Hymnal: The Kingdom of Praise #40 (1920) First Line: Where'er I go the Saviour will go with me Refrain First Line: I cannot get beyond the circle of His love Lyrics: 1 Where’er I go the Saviour will go with me, It matters not how dark and rough my way, With tender love He circles all my journey, I cannot get beyond His loving sway. Refrain: I cannot get beyond the circle of His love, I cannot get beyond the circle of His love; His presence goes before me, And His love-light shineth o’er me, So I cannot get beyond His love. 2 In sorrow’s hour His tender love abideth, For ev’ry woe He hath a soothing balm; ‘Mid ev’ry stormy tempest, wildly beating, He whispers peace, and there is instant calm. [Refrain] 3 Oh, peerless love, beyond all understanding! And ev’ry soul this lasting love may choose! Far-reaching love, so measureless, so boundless, How strange that hearts can e’er such love refuse. [Refrain] 4 No pow’rs, no depths, no tow’ring heights above me, Nor life, nor death, nor trials anywhere, Can separate me from the love of Jesus, Or keep me from His watchful, tender care. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Where'er I go the Saviour will go with me]

Grant Colfax Tullar

1869 - 1950 Composer of "[Where'er I go the Saviour will go with me]" in The Kingdom of Praise Grant Colfax Tullar was born August 5, 1869, in Bolton, Connecticut. He was named after the American President Ulysses S. Grant and Vice President Schuyler Colfax. After the American Civil War, his father was disabled and unable to work, having been wounded in the Battle of Antietam. Tullar's mother died when he was just two years old so Grant had no settled home life until he became an adult. Yet from a life of sorrow and hardship he went on to bring joy to millions of Americans with his songs and poetry. As a child, he received virtually no education or religious training. He worked in a woolen mill and as a shoe clerk. The last Methodist camp meeting in Bolton was in 1847. Tullar became a Methodist at age 19 at a camp meeting near Waterbury in 1888. He then attended the Hackettstown Academy in New Jersey. He became an ordained Methodist minister and pastored for a short time in Dover, Delaware. For 10 years he was the song leader for evangelist Major George A. Hilton. Even so, in 1893 he also helped found the well-known Tullar-Meredith Publishing Company in New York, which produced church and Sunday school music. Tullar composed many popular hymns and hymnals. His works include: Sunday School Hymns No. 1 (Chicago, Illinois: Tullar Meredith Co., 1903) and The Bible School Hymnal (New York: Tullar Meredith Co., 1907). One of Grant Tullar's most quoted poems is "The Weaver": My Life is but a weaving Between my Lord and me; I cannot choose the colors He worketh steadily. Oft times He weaveth sorrow And I, in foolish pride, Forget He sees the upper, And I the under side. Not til the loom is silent And the shuttles cease to fly, Shall God unroll the canvas And explain the reason why. The dark threads are as needful In the Weaver's skillful hand, As the threads of gold and silver In the pattern He has planned. He knows, He loves, He cares, Nothing this truth can dim. He gives His very best to those Who chose to walk with Him. Grant Tullar --http://www.boltoncthistory.org/granttullar.html, from Bolton Community News, August 2006.
