The Love of God

God leaves us free to seek him or reject him; he gives us room to answer "yes" or "no." Refrain: The love of God is broad like beach and meadow, wide as the wind, and an eternal home. 2 We long for freedom where our truest being is given hope and courage to unfold. We seek in freedom space and scope for dreaming, and look for ground where trees and plants can grow. [Refrain] 3 But there are walls that keep us all divided; we fence each other in with hate and war. Fear is the bricks and mortar of our prison, our pride of self the prison coat we wear. [Refrain] 4 O judge us, God, and in your judgment free us, and set our feet in freedom's open space; take us as far as your compassion wanders among the children of the human race. [Refrain] Scripture: Ephesians 2:13-22 Languages: English Tune Title: FINLANDIA

I've Canaan's goodly land in view, And realms of endless day. 5 Apostles, martyrs, prophets there Around my Saviour stand; And soon my friends in Christ below Will join the glorious band. 6 Jerusalem, my happy home, My soul still pants for Thee! Then shall my labours have an end, When I Thy joys shall see. Languages: English Tune Title: SOUTHWELL

Amen! so let it be! Life from the dead is in that word, 'Tis immortality! Here is the body pent, Absent from Him I roam, Yet nightly pitch my moving tent A day's march nearer home. 2 My Father's house on high, Home of my soul, how near! At times, to faith's unclouded eye, Thy golden gates appear. Ah! then my spirit faints To reach the land I love The bright inheritance of saints, Jerusalem above! 3 "For ever with the Lord!" Father, if 'tis Thy will, The promise of that faithful word Even here to me fulfil. Be Thou at my right hand, Then can I never fail; Uphold Thou me, and I shall stand; Fight, and I must prevail. 4 So when my latest breath Shall rend the veil in twain, By death I shall escape from death, And life eternal gain. Knowing as I am known, How shall I love that word, And oft repeat before the throne, "For ever with the Lord!" Languages: English Tune Title: NEARER HOME
"For ever with the Lord!"
