There's a Wideness in God's Mercy

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #121 (1989) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Freedom and Liberation 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. 2 There is welcome for the sinner, and more graces for the good! There is mercy with the Savior; there is healing in his blood. 3 For the love of God is broader than the measure of our mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. 4 If our love were but more simple, we should rest upon God's word; and our lives would be illumined by the presence of our Lord. Scripture: Matthew 20:16 Languages: English Tune Title: WELLESLEY
