Author: Faber Hymnal: Living Hymns #239 (1890) First Line: There's a wideness in God's mercy Refrain First Line: He is calling, "Come to me!" 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.
Chorus:
He is calling, "Come to me!"
Lord, I'll gladly haste to thee.
2 There is welcome for the sinner,
And more graces for the good;
There is mercy with the Saviour;
There is healing in his blood. [Chorus]
3 For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of the mind;
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderful and kind. [Chorus]
4 If our love were but more simple,
We should take him at his word
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [There's a wideness in God's mercy]
