114- There's a Wideness

God the Father: Grace and Mercy of God

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 welcome for the sinner,
  • And more graces for the good;
  • There is mercy with the Savior;
  • There is healing in His blood.

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.

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.
