Good is the Lord, and Full of Kind Compassion

Meter: 11.10.11.10 D Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Compassion of God First Line: Good is the Lord and full of kind compassion Lyrics: 1 Good is the Lord and full of kind compassion, Most slow to anger, plenteous in love; Rich is His grace to all that humbly seek Him, Boundless and endless as the heavens above. His love is like a father's to his children, Tender and kind to all who fear His Name; For well He knows our weakness and our frailty, He knows that we are dust, He knows our frame. 2 We fade and die like flowers that grow in beauty, Like tender grass that soon will disappear; But evermore the love of God is changeless, Still shown to those who look to Him in fear. High in the heavens His throne is fixed forever, His kingdom rules o'er all from pole to pole; Bless ye the Lord through all His wide dominion, Bless His most holy Name, O thou my soul. Scripture: Psalm 103 Used With Tune: LONDONDERRY

Give us, Christ, your great compassion To forgive as you forgave; May we still behold your image In the world you died to save. 3 Gracious Spirit, help us summon Other guests to share that feast Where triumphant Love will welcome Those who had been last and least. There no more will envy blind us Nor will pride our peace destroy, As we join with saints and angels To repeat the sounding joy. Scripture: Genesis 12:1-4 Used With Tune: NETTLETON

Allen Appears in 842 hymnals Topics: God Compassion of Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing, Which before the cross I spend; Life and health and peace possessing, From the sinner's dying Friend. 2 Truly blessed is the station, Low before His cross to lie, While I see divine compassion Beaming from His gracious eye. 3 Here it is I find my heaven While upon the Lamb I gaze; Love I much? I'm much forgiven! I'm a miracle of grace. 4 Love and grief my heart dividing, With my tears His feet I'll bathe; Constant still, in faith abiding, Life deriving from His death. 5 Here in tender, grateful sorrow With my Saviour will I stay; Here new hope and strength will borrow, Here will love my fears away.
