O how I fear Thee, living God, With deepest, tenderest fears, And worship Thee with trembling hope, And penitential tears! 4. Yet I may love Thee too, O Lord, Almighty as Thou art; For Thou hast stooped to ask of me The love of my poor heart. 5. No earthly father loves like Thee, No mother, e'er so mild, Bears and forbears, as Thou hast done With me, Thy wayward child. 6.

Its streams the whole creation reach, So plenteous is the store, Enough for all, enough for each, Enough for evermore. 5. Throughout the universe it reigns, Unalterably sure; And while the truth of God remains, The goodness must endure. Languages: English Tune Title: SALZBURG

"The evil hour"

Author: Michael Bruce Hymnal: Laudes Domini #49 (1890) Topics: God Forbearance; God Forbearance First Line: Where high the heavenly temple stands Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands, The house of God not made with hands, A great High Priest our nature wears, The Guardian of mankind appears. 2 Though now ascended up on high, He bends on earth a brother's eye; Partaker of the human name, He knows the frailty of our frame. 3 Our Father-sufferer yet retains A fellow-feeling of our pains; And still remembers, in the skies, His tears, his agonies, and cries. 4 In every pang that rends the heart, The Man of Sorrows had a part; He sympathizes with our grief, And to the sufferer sends relief. 5 With boldness, therefore, at the throne, Let us make all our sorrows known; And ask the aid of heavenly power, To help us in the evil hour.

Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: Laudes Domini #122 (1890) Topics: God Forbearance; God Forbearance 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!

God's Welcome

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: Laudes Domini #132 (1890) Topics: God Forbearance; God Forbearance 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
