Christ is the one who calls

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #487 (2013) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Topics: Proper 5 Year A Lyrics: 1 Christ is the one who calls, the one who loved and came, to whom by right it falls to bear the highest name: and still today our hearts are stirred to hear his word and walk his way. 2 Christ is the one who seeks, to whom our souls are known. The word of love he speaks can wake a heart of stone; for at that sound the blind can see, the slave is free, the lost are found. 3 Christ is the one who died forsaken and betrayed; who, mocked and crucified, the price of pardon paid. Our dying Lord, what grief and loss, what bitter cross, our souls restored! 4 Christ is the one who rose in glory from the grave, to share his life with those whom once he died to save. He drew death's sting and broke its chains, who lives and reigns, our risen King. 5 Christ is the one who sends, his story to declare; who calls his servants friends and gives them news to share. His truth proclaim in all the earth, his matchless worth and saving name. Scripture: Matthew 28:18-20 Languages: English Tune Title: LOVE UNKNOWN

There's a wideness in God's mercy

Author: F. W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: Common Praise #598a (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Proper 5 Year B Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy like the wideness of the sea; there's a kindness in his 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 kindly judgement given. 3 For the love of God is broader than the measure of man's mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. 4 But we make his love too narrow by false limits of our own; and we magnify his strictness with a zeal he will not own. 5 There is plentiful redemption in the blood that has been shed; there is joy for all the members in the sorrows of the Head. 6 There is grace enough for thousands of new worlds as great as this; there is room for fresh creations in that upper home of bliss. Descant: If our love were but more simple, we should take him at his word; and our lives would be all gladness in the joy of Christ our Lord.

Immortal Love for ever full

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #675 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Proper 5 Year A Lyrics: 1 Immortal Love for ever full, for ever flowing free, for ever shared, for ever whole, a never-ebbing sea. 2 Our outward lips confess the name all other names above; love only knoweth whence it came and comprehendeth love. 3 We may not climb the heavenly steeps to bring the Lord Christ down; in vain we search the lowest deeps, for him no depths can drown: 4 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet a present help is he; and faith has still its Olivet, and love its Galilee. 5 The healing of his seamless dress is by our beds of pain; we touch him in life's throng and press, and we are whole again. 6 Through him the first fond prayers are said our lips of childhood frame; the last low whispers of our dead are burdened with his name. 7 Alone, O Love ineffable, thy saving name is given; to turn aside from thee is hell, to walk with thee is heaven.
