God's Welcome

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: Laudes Domini #132 (1890) Topics: Love For God; Love For God First Line: There's a wideness in God's mercy 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 Saviour; 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 man's mind; And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. 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 the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: ERIE

Each blessing to my soul more dear Because conferred by thee. In every joy that crowns my days, In every pain I bear, My heart shall find delight in praise Or seek relief in prayer. 3 When gladness wings my favored hour, Thy love my thoughts shall fill; Resigned, when storms of sorrow lower, My soul shall meet thy will. My lifted eye, without a tear, The gathering storm shall see; My steadfast heart shall know no fear; That heart will rest on thee. Languages: English Tune Title: BRATTLE STREET

Continued help

Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: Laudes Domini #122 (1890) Topics: Love For God; Love For God First Line: When all thy mercies, O my God! Lyrics: 1 When all thy mercies, O my God! My rising soul surveys, Transported with the view, I'm lost In wonder, love, and praise. 2 Unnumbered comforts, to my soul, Thy tender care bestowed, Before my infant heart conceived From whom those comforts flowed. 3 When, in the slippery paths of youth, With heedless steps, I ran, Thine arm, unseen, conveyed me safe, And led me up to man. 4 Ten thousand, thousand precious gifts My daily thanks employ; Nor is the least a cheerful heart, That tastes those gifts with joy. 5 Through every period of my life, Thy goodness I'll pursue; And after death, in distant worlds, The glorious theme renew. 6 Through all eternity, to thee A joyful song I'll raise; For, oh, eternity's too short To utter all thy praise!

Father! how wide thy glory shines!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #128 (1890) Topics: Love For God; Love For God Lyrics: 1 Father! how wide thy glory shines! How high thy wonders rise! Known through the earth by thousand signs, By thousand through the skies. 2 Those mighty orbs proclaim thy power, Their motions speak thy skill; And on the wings of every hour, We read thy patience still. 3 But, when we view thy strange design To save rebellious worms, Where vengeance and compassion join In their divinest forms, 4 Here the whole Deity is known; Nor dares a creature guess Which of the glories brightest shone, The justice, or the grace. 5 Now the full glories of the Lamb Adorn the heavenly plains; Bright seraphs learn Immanuel's name, And try their choicest strains. 6 Oh, may I bear some humble part, In that immortal song; Wonder and joy shall tune my heart, And love command my tongue.

The Riches of God's Goodness

Hymnal: The Psalter #81 (1912) Topics: Love For God First Line: How great the goodness kept in store Lyrics: 1 How great the goodness kept in store For those who fear Thee and adore In meek humility. How great the deeds with mercy fraught Which openly Thy hand hath wrought For those who trust in Thee, For those who trust in Thee. 2 Secured by Thy unfailing grace, In Thee they find a hiding place When foes their plots devise; A sure retreat Thou wilt prepare, And keep them safely sheltered there, When strife of tongues shall rise, When strife of tongues shall rise. 3 Blest be the Lord, for He has showed, While giving me a safe abode, His love beyond compare; Altho' His face He seemed to hide, He ever heard me when I cried, And made my wants His care, And made my wants His care. 4 Ye saints, Jehovah love and serve, For He the faithful will preserve, And shield from men of pride; Be strong, and let your hearts be brave, All ye that wait for Him to save, In God the Lord confide, In God the Lord confide.

Psalm 90

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #123 (1890) Topics: Love For God; Love For God First Line: O God, our help in ages past Lyrics: 1 Our God, our help in ages past, Our hopes for years to come; Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home! Under the shadow of thy throne Thy saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is thine arm alone, And our defence is sure. 2 Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting thou art God To endless years the same. A thousand ages, in thy sight, Are like an evening gone; Short as the watch that ends the night, Before the rising sun. 3 Time, like an ever-rolling stream Bears all its sons away; They fly, forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. Our God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be thou our guard while troubles last, And our eternal home. Languages: English
