I det rige Naadens Ord Strømmer Livets Kilde. Det var Herrens Ord engang Til en Hedning-Kvinde, Som, mens Klokkerne har Klang, Aldrig gaar af Minde. 2 Det er stadig Herrens Ord Til hvert Hjertelille, Naar han ser, dets Tro er stor Til hans Øine milde. Gjerne det ved Hunde smaa sig som Kvinden ligner, Naar kun Smuler det kan faa Af det, Gud velsigner. 3 Smuler af det Livets Brød, Som fra Himlen kommer, Det er Lægedom for Død, Sæd til evig Sommer. Naar det sker, hvad Hjertet vil, Som er Livets Sæde, Da er Sorg og Død ei til, Men kun Liv og Glæde. 4 Det vil og vor Frelsermand, Sorg og Død han hader, Liv og Glæde lover han, Evig hos sin Fader. Selv er han det Livets Brød, Hvo deraf vil æde, Skal indgaa, trods Synd og Død, Til vor Herres Glæede.

And, Jesus, I have promised to serve you to the end: O give me grace to follow, my Saviour and my friend. Used With Tune: DAY OF REST

There's a Wideness in God's Mercy

Author: Frederick William Faber Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 922 hymnals Topics: Lent 3 Year C 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 no place where earth's sorrows are more felt than up in heaven; there is no place where earth's failings have such gracious judgement given. 3 There is plentiful redemption in the blood that Christ has shed; there is joy for all the members in the sorrows of the Head. 4 Troubled souls, why will you scatter like a crowd of frightened sheep? Foolish hearts, why will you wander from a love so true and deep? 5 For the love of God is broader than the measures of the mind, and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind.
