He is Calling

Author: F. W. Faber Hymnal: Light in the Valley #191 (1898) First Line: There's a wideness in God's mercy Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy, Like the wideness of the sea; There's a kindness in his justice Which is more than liberty. He is calling, "Come to me!" Lord, I gladly haste to thee. 2 There is welcome for the sinner, And more grace for the good; There is mercy with the Saviour, There is healing in his blood. He is calling, "Come to me!" Lord, I gladly haste to thee. 3 For the love of God is broader Than the measure of man's mind; And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. 4 If our love were but more simple, We should take him at his word; And our lives would be all sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord.

There's a wideness in God's mercy

Author: Frederick William Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #662 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy, like the wideness of the sea; there's a kindness in his justice, which is more than liberty. There is no place where earth's sorrows are more felt than up in heav'n; there is no place where earth's failings have such kindly judgement giv'n. 2 But we make his love too narrow by false limits of our own; and we magnify his strictness with a zeal he would not own. There is plentiful redemption in the blood that has been shed, there is joy for all the members in the sorrows of the Head. 3 For the love of God is broader than the scope of human mind, and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. If our love were but more simple, we should take him at his word; and our hearts would find assurance in the promise of the Lord.
