| 1 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? 2 Was there ever kinder shepherd Half so gentle, half so sweet, As the Saviour Who would have us Come and gather round His feet? 3 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. 4 There is plentiful redemption In the blood that has been shed; There is joy for all the members In the sorrows of the Head. 5 For the love of God is broader Than the measure of man’s mind. And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. 6 If our love were but more simple, We should take Him at His word; And our lives would all be sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord. | The Song Book of the Salvation Army #265 (1986) The Cyber Hymnal #6253 Revival Hymns and Choruses #274 (1970) |
