        There's a wideness in God's mercy                       God be the glory,  for the things he has done.
        Like the wideness of the sea;
        There's a kindness in His justice,                      With his blood he has saved me,
        Which is more than liberty.   1/6                       With his power he has raised me. To God be the

        Verse 2
        There is plentiful redemption                           Just let me live my life
        In the blood that has been shed;                        Let it be pleasing Lord to thee And should I gain
        There is joy for all the members                        any praise Let it go to Calvary.

                                                                With his blood he has saved me,
        Verse 3                                                 With his power he has raised me. To God be the
        There is grace enough for thousands                     glory, for the things he has done.
        Of new worlds as great as this;                         HOME
        There is room for fresh creations
        In that upper home of bliss.   3/6                      170 Love Lifted Me
                                                                Verse 1
        Verse 4                                                 I was sinking deep in sin,
        For the love of God is broader                          Far from the peaceful shore,
        Than the measure of man's mind;                         Very deeply stained within,
        And the heart of the Eternal                            Sinking to rise no more.
        Is most wonderfully kind.   4/6
                                                                But the Master of the sea
        Verse 5                                                 Heard my despairing cry, From the waters lifted
        But we make his love too narrow                         me; Now safe am I.
        By false limits of our own;
        And we magnify his strictness                           Chorus
        With a zeal he will not own.   5/6                      Love lifted me!
                                                                Love lifted me! When nothing else could help,
        Verse 6                                                 Love lifted me.
        If our love were but more simple,                       Love lifted me.
        We should take Him at His word;
        And our lives would be all sunshine                     Verse 2
        In the sweetness of our Lord.   6/6                     All my heart to Him I give;
        HOME                                                    Ever to Him I'll cling,
        169 My Tribute                                          In His blessed presence live, Ever His praises
        How can I say thanks                                    sing.

        For the things you have done for me?                    Love so mighty and so true
        Things so undeserved,                                   Merits my soul's best songs; Faithful, loving
        Yet you gave to prove your love for me.                 service, too, To Him belongs.

        The voices of a million angels
                                                                Chorus
