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 man's mind; And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind.

Your living likeness still we bear, though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed. We come, with all our heart and mind your call to hear, your love to find. 2 We come with self-inflicted pains of broken trust and chosen wrong; half-free, half-bound by inner chains; by social forces swept along, by powers and systems close confined; yet seeking hope for humankind. 3 Great God, in Christ you call our name and then receive us as your own not through some merit, right, or claim, but by your gracious love alone. We strain to glimpse your mercy seat and find you kneeling at our feet. 4 Then take the towel, and break the bread, and humble us, and call us friends. Suffer and serve till all are fed, and show how grandly love intends to work till all creation sings, to fill all worlds, to crown all things. 5 Great God, in Christ you set us free your life to live, your joy to share. Give us your Spirit's liberty to turn from guilt and dull despair and offer all that faith can do while love is making all things new.

Thy date and thy measure unlimited flow: This Jesus reveals with evidence strong; It gladdens my heart, and inspires my song With praise to my Saviour, my Lord, and my God, Whose love is my glory, as view'd in his blood. 3 O love! what a gath'ring of souls hast thou made! All into one fountain, one body, one head, Where they were preserved thy own, thro' the fall, The fulness of Jesus, who fills all in all: Close in her pavilion, the darling, the bride, Lay hid in her husband, till born from his side. 4 O love! what a bridegroom of honour and trust! The fulness of heaven hath marri'd my dust; He humbled himself to cleave to his wife, In all her distress and her sorrows of life; With her was he number'd amongst the unclean, Nor yet could he loathe her, nor jar come between. 5 O love! what a husband thy care did provide! Descending from glory in search of thy bride; Her substance conceived, thy body was she, Incarnate in her, and she then was in thee; In Mary, the virgin, the twain was made one, Whence God, our Creator, was born a poor man.

We might learn, by gladly sharing, Not to trust in things we own But to risk—it's part of caring—And to trust in you alone. We could do abundant mission, Sharing Christ who claims and frees. We could reach out with new vision In creative ministries. No more bound by limitations Of what churches can't afford, We could learn with jubilation Whole new ways to serve you, Lord. In each country that was struggling, We could build a thousand schools, We could feed a million orphans And give countless farmers tools. As we gladly shared your blessings, Then the world might want to know: "See! How loving are those Christians! Who's the One who makes them so?" God, we know we cannot pay you For your love in Christ your Son. Gifts and tithes are just a "thank you"—Ways to pass your blessings on. We have learned that, in our sharing, We receive more than we give. By your Spirit, make us daring, In this joyful way to live. Topics: Mission; Stewardship Used With Tune: NETTLETON
