Lyrics
Verse 1
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?
Was there ever kinder shepherd half so gentle, half so sweet,
As the Savior who would have us come and gather round His feet?
Verse 2
It is God, His love looks mighty, but is mighti'r than it seems;
'Tis our Father, and His fondness goes far out beyond our dreams.
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.
Verse 3
There is no place where earth's sorrows are more felt than up in Heav'n;
There is no place where earth's failings have such wondrous judgment giv'n.
There is welcome for the sinner, grace poured out as in a flood
There is mercy with the Savior; there is healing in His blood.
Verse 4
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.
For the love of God is broader than the measure of man's mind;
And the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind.
Verse 5
There is plentiful redemption in Christ's blood that has been shed;
There is joy for all the members in the sorrows of the Head.
Not just all we owe to Jesus; it is something more than all;
Greater good because of evil, larger mercy through the fall....
