There's a wideness in God's mercy

Author: Frederick William Faber, 1814-1863 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 902 hymnals 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. There is welcome for the sinner, and more graces for the good; there is mercy with the Savior; there is healing in his blood. 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. There is plentiful redemption in the blood that has been shed; there is joy for all the members in the sorrows of the Head. 3 For the love of God is broader than the measure of the mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. If our love were but more faithful, we should take him at his word; and our life would be thanksgiving for the goodness of the Lord. Topics: Jesus Christ our Lord Used With Tune: BEECHER

Now with Joyful Exultation

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now with joyful exultation let us sing to God our praise; to the Rock of our salvation loud hosannas let us raise. Thankful tribute gladly bringing, let us come before him now; and with psalms his praises singing, joyful in his presence bow. 2 For how great a God, and glorious, is the LORD of whom we sing; over idol gods victorious, great is he, our God and King. In his hand are earth's deep places, also his are all the hills; his the sea whose bounds he traces, his the land his bounty fills. 3 To the LORD, such might revealing, let us come with reverence meet, and, before our Maker kneeling, let us worship at his feet. He is our own God who leads us, we the people of his care; with a shepherd's hand he feeds us as his flock in pastures fair. 4 While he offers peace and pardon let us hear his voice today, lest, if we our hearts should harden, we should perish in the way– lest to us, so unbelieving, he in judgment should declare: "You, so long my Spirit grieving, never in my rest will share."

Lord, Thou Lov'st the Cheerful Giver

Author: Robert Murray Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 38 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, thou lov'st the cheerful giver, who with open heart and hand blesses freely, as a river that refreshes all the land. Grant us then the grace of giving with a spirit large and free, that our life and all our living, we may consecrate to thee. 2 We are thine, thy mercy sought us, found us in death's dreadful way, to the fold in safety brought us, never more from thee to stray. Thine own life thou freely gavest as an off'ring on the cross for each sinner whom thou savest from eternal shame and loss. 3 Blest by thee with gifts and graces, may we heed thy church's call; gladly in all times and places give to thee who givest all. Thou hast bought us, and no longer can we claim to be our own; ever free and ever stronger, we shall serve thee, Lord, alone. 4 Savior, thou hast freely given all the blessings we enjoy, earthly store and bread of heaven, love and peace without alloy; humbly now we bow before thee, and our all to thee resign; for the kingdom, pow'r, and glory, are, O Lord, forever thine.

Dicha Grande Es La Del Hombre

Author: Thomas Martin Westrup, 1837-1909 Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Dicha grande es la del hombre, Cuyas sendas rectas son; No anda con los pecadores, En actuar de perversión. A los malos consejeros Deja, porque teme el mal; Huye de la burladora Gente impía e inmoral. 2 Antes, en la ley divina Cifra su mayor placer, Meditando día y noche En su divinal saber. Este, como el árbol verde, Bien regado y en sazón, Frutos abundantes rinde Y hojas que perennes son. 3 El prospera en lo que emprende Y le sale todo bien; Mas funestos resultados Los impíos siempre ven. Porque Dios la senda mira Por la cual los suyos van; Otra es la de los impíos: Al infierno bajarán. Used With Tune: [Dicha grande es la del hombre]

Jesus, Thou Divine Companion

Author: H. van Dyke Appears in 77 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou Divine Companion, By Thy lowly human birth Thou hast come to join the workers, Burden bearers of the earth. Thou the carpenter of Nazareth, Toiling for Thy daily food, By Thy patience and Thy courage Thou hast taught us toil is good. 2 They who tread the path of labour Follow where Thy feet have trod; They who work without complaining Do the holy will of God. Thou, the peace that passeth knowledge, Dwellest in the daily strife; Thou, the Bread of heaven, art broken In the sacrament of life. 3 Every task, however simple, Sets the soul that does it free; Every deed of love and kindness Done to man is done to Thee. Jesus, Thou Divine Companion, Help us all to work our best, Bless us in our daily labour, Lead us to our Sabbath rest.

Light of those whose dreary dwelling

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 356 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Light of those whose dreary dwelling Borders on the shades of death, Come, and by thyself revealing, Dissipate the clouds beneath. Thou, new heaven and earth's Creator, In our deepest darkness rise; Scattering all the night of nature, Pouring day up-on our eyes. 2 Still we wait for thy appearing; Life and joy thy beams impart, Chasing all our fears, and cheering Every poor benighted heart. Come, extend thy wonted favor To our ruined, guilty race; Come, thou blest, exalted Saviour! Come, apply thy saving grace. 3 By thine all-atoning merit Every burdened soul release; By the teachings of thy Spirit Guide us into perfect peace; So shall we, at thine appearing, Wait thy smiling face to see; So, the joyful summons hearing, Enter into rest with thee.
