There Are Two Commands
There's a wideness in God's mercy
Author: Dr. F. W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #36 (1917) Topics: Love To God 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 judgment given.
3. There is welcome for the sinner,
And more graces for the good;
There is mercy with the Saviour;
There is healing in His blood.
4. For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of man's mind;
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
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. If our love were but more simple,
We should take Him at His word,
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the favour of our Lord.
In many editions the hymn begins with the following stanzas:
Was there ever kindest shepherd
Half so gentle, half so sweet,
As the Saviour who would have us
Come and gather round His feet?
Souls of men, why will ye scatter
Like a crowd of frightened sheep?
Foolish hearts, why will ye wander
From a love so true and deep? Languages: English Tune Title: NEWTON FERNS

My God, how wonderful thou art
Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: The Hymnal #97 (1921) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Love To God Languages: English Tune Title: [AZMON]
My God, how wonderful thou art
The Lord Jehovah reigns
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Together in Song #117 (1999) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Our Love to God Lyrics: 1 The Lord Jehovah reigns,
his throne is built on high;
the garments he assumes
are light and majesty:
his glories shine with beams so bright
no mortal eye can bear the sight.
2 The thunders of his hand
keep the wide world in awe;
his wrath and justice stand
to guard his holy law;
and where his love resolves to bless
his truth confirms and seals his grace.
3 Through all his ancient works
amazing wisdom shines,
confounds the powers of hell
and breaks their cursed designs;
strong is his arm, and shall fulfil
his great decrees, his sovereign will.
4 And can this mighty King
of Glory condescend?
And will he write his name
My Father and my Friend?
I love his name, I love his word;
join, all my powers, and praise the Lord. Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:13-16 Languages: English Tune Title: ST JOHN

Vor Gud er idel Kjærlighed
Hymnal: Psalmebog, udgiven af Synoden for den norske evangelisk-lutherske Kirke i Amerika (2nd ed.) #298 (1890) Topics: Love to God and Savior Lyrics: 1 Vor Gud er idel Kjærlighed,
I hannem vil jeg blive,
Jeg og i hannem bliver ved,
I mig vil han og give
Fuld Tro og Trøst, Basunens Røst
Den gjør mig ei forstrækket
Paa Dommedag, fordi min Sag
Er alt med Naade dækket.
2 Jeg vil gud elske inderlig,
Og vil for Intet frygte,
Og ei med Sorrig pine mig,
Om mig al Verden trykte;
Op, Sjæl, og bed, at Kjærlighed
Til Gud i dig kan brænde,
Og at du saa din næste maa
Al Gunst og Godt tilvende.
3 Thi hvo som siger at han ret
Kan elsker Gud af Hjerte,
Og har sin Broder dog forgjet
I Armod, Rød og Smerte,
Han lyver slemt, og har forglemt,
At Gud han elskes ikke,
Hvor Arme maa utrøsted' gaa
Sin' Øines Graad at drikke.
4 O Gud, din Kjærlighed optænd
Og lad din Aand det gjøre,
Og kraftig Naade til mig send,
Jeg saa mit Liv kan føre,
At naar jeg maa til Graven gaa,
Jeg dør da til mit Bedste
I Hjertens Fred og Kjærlighed
Til dig og til min Næste! Languages: Norwegian

Oh, could I find, from day to day
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #398 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Love To God Lyrics: 1 Oh, could I find, from day to day,
A nearness to my God;
Then should my hours glide sweet away,
And lean upon His word.
2 Lord, I desire with Thee to live
Anew from day to day;
In joys the world can never give,
Nor ever take away.
3 O Jesus, come and rule my heart,
And make me wholly Thine,
That I may never more depart,
Nor grieve Thy love divine:
4 Thus till my last expiring breath,
Thy goodness I'll adore;
And when my flesh dissolves in death,
My soul shall love Thee more.
