There's a Wideness in God's mercy

Author: Frederick William Faber Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #23 (1995) 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 God's justice, which is more than liberty. There is no place where earthly sorrows are more felt than in God's heaven; there's no place where earthly failings have such kindly judgment given. 2 For the love of God is broader than the measures of our minds; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. If our love were but more faithful, we would gladly trust God's Word, and our lives would show thanksgiving for the goodness of our God.

While he lifts his hands in blessing, he is parted from his friends; while their eager eyes behold him, he upon the clouds ascends. 3. Thou has raised our human nature on the clouds to God's right hand; there we sit in heavenly places, there with thee in glory stand. Jesus reigns, adored by angels; Man with God is on the throne; mighty Lord, in thine ascension we by faith behold our own. Languages: English Tune Title: IN BABILONE
