You leave us free to seek you or reject you, you give us room to answer "yes" or "no." Refrain: Your love, O God, is broad like beach and meadow, wide as the wind, and our eternal home. 2 We long for freedom where our truest being is given hope and courage to unfold. We seek in freedom space and scope for dreaming, and look for ground where trees and plants can grow. [Refrain] 3 But there are walls that keep us all divided; we fence each other in with hate and war. Fear is the bricks and mortar of our prison, our pride of self, the prison coat we wear. [Refrain] 4 O judge us, Lord, and in your judgment free us, and set our feet in freedom's open space; take us as far as your compassion wanders among the children of the human race. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: GUDS KÄRLEK

There's a Wideness in God's Mercy

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #121 (1989) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: The Glory of the Triune God God's Nature; The Glory of the Triune God God's Nature Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy like the wideness of the sea; there’s a kindness in God's 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 our mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. 4 If our love were but more simple, we should rest upon God's word; and our lives would be illumined by the presence of our Lord.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick H. Hedge Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #110 (1989) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: The Glory of the Triune God God's Nature; The Glory of the Triune God God's Nature Lyrics: 1. A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing; our helper he amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe; his craft and power are great, and armed with cruel hate, on earth is not his equal. 2. Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing, were not the right man on our side, the man of God's own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he; Lord Sabaoth, his name, from age to age the same, and he must win the battle. 3. And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God hath willed his truth to triumph through us. The Prince of Darkness grim, we tremble not for him; his rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure; one little word shall fell him. 4. That word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abideth; the Spirit and the gifts are ours, thru him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also; the body they may kill; God's truth abideth still; his kingdom is forever. Scripture: Psalm 46 Languages: English Tune Title: EIN' FESTE BURG

How Can We Name a Love

Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #111 (1989) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: The Glory of the Triune God God's Nature; The Glory of the Triune God God's Nature Lyrics: 1 How can we name a Love that wakens heart and mind, indwelling all we know or think or do or seek or find? Within our daily world, in every human face, Love's echoes sound and God is found, hid in the commonplace. 2 If we awoke to life built on a rock of care that asked no great reward but firm, assured, was simply there, we can, with parents' names, describe, and thus adore, Love unconfined, a father kind, a mother strong and sure. 3 When people share a task, and strength and skills unite in projects old or new, to make or do with shared delight, our Friend and Partner's will is better understood, that all should share, create, and care, and know that life is good. 4 So in a hundred names, each day we all can meet a presence, sensed and shown at work, at home, or in the street. Yet every name we see, shines in a brighter sun: In Christ alone is Love full grown and life and hope begun. Languages: English Tune Title: TERRA BEATA
