There's A Wideness In God's Mercy

We make His love too narrow
By false limits of our own
And we magnify His strictness
With a zeal He will not own

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 Savior
There is healing in His blood

But we make His love too narrow
By false limits of our own
And we magnify His strictness
With a zeal He will not own

There is grace enough for thousands
Of new worlds as great as this
There is room for fresh creations
In that upper home of bliss
Souls of men! why will ye scatter
Like a crowd of frightened sheep?
Foolish hearts! why will ye wander
From a love so true and deep?

But we make His love too narrow
By false limits of our own
And we magnify His strictness
With a zeal He will not own
And we make His love too narrow
By false limits of our own
And we magnify His strictness
With a zeal He will not own

For the love of God is broader than our minds
And the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind
For the love of God is broader than our minds
And the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind
For the love of God is broader than our minds
And the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind
For the love of God is broader than our minds
And the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind

Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen
