Your Love, O God

Author: Anders Frostenson; Fred Kaan Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #71 (1995) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Freedom and Liberation First Line: Your love, O God, is broad like beach and meadow Lyrics: 1 Your love, O God, is broad like beach and meadow, wide as the wind, and our eternal home. You leave us free to seek you or reject you, you give us room to answer "yes" or "no." 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. 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. 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.
