Isaiah the Prophet Has Written of Old
There's a Wideness in God's Mercy
Author: Frederick W. Faber Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 900 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:7 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.
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 measures of the mind;
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
4 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 our Lord.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Love and Mercy Used With Tune: WELLESLEY

Come home, come home

Calling for you and for me;
At the heart's portal he's waiting and watching,
Watching for you and for me.
Chorus:
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary, come home;
Earnestly, tenderly Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!
2 Why should we tarry when Jesus is pleading,
Pleading for you and for me?
Why should we linger and heed not his mercies,
Mercies for you and for me? [Chorus]
3 Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing,
Passing from you and from me;
Shadows are gath'ring and death's night is coming,
Coming for you and for me. [Chorus]
4 Think of the wonderful love he has promised,
Promised for you and for me;
Tho' we have sinned, he has mercy and pardon,
Pardon for you and for me. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Invitation Used With Tune: CALLING
Come home, come home
Let the Wicked forsake his Way
Appears in 283 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:7 First Line: Sinners, the Voice of GOD regard Lyrics: 1 Sinners, the Voice of GOD regard;
'Tis Mercy speaks to day;
He calls you by his Sov'reign Word,
From Sin's destructive Way.
2 Like the rough Sea, that cannot rest,
You live devoid of Peace;
A thousand Stings within your Breast,
Deprive your Souls of Ease.
3 Your Way is dark, and leads to Hell;
Why will you persevere?
Can you in endless Torments dwell,
Shut up in black Despair?
4 Why will you in the crooked Ways
Of Sin and Folly go?
In Pain you travel all your Days,
To reap immortal Woe!
5 But he that turns to GOD shall live,
Thro' his abounding Grace;
His Mercy will the Guilt forgive
Of those that seek his Face.
6 Bow to the Sceptre of his Word,
Renouncing every Sin;
Submit to him your sov'reign LORD,
And learn his Will Divine.
7 His LOVE exceeds your highest Thoughts;
He pardons like a GOD;
He will forgive your numerous Faults,
Thro' a Redeemer's Blood

Word of God, Come Down on Earth
Isaiah 55: Ho! ye that thirst, approach the spring
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 18 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55 First Line: Ho! ye that thirst, approach the spring Lyrics:
Ho! ye that thirst, approach the spring
where living waters flow:
Free to that sacred fountain all
without a price may go.
How long to streams of false delight
will ye in crowds repair?
How long your strength and substance waste
on trifles, light as air?
My stores afford those rich supplies
that health and pleasure give:
Incline your ear, and come to me;
the soul that hears shall live.
With you a cov’nant I will make,
that ever shall endure;
The hope which gladdened David’s heart
my mercy hath made sure.
Behold he comes! your leader comes,
with might and honour crowned;
A witness who shall spread my name
to earth’s remotest bound.
134
See! nations hasten to his call
from ev’ry distant shore;
Isles, yet unknown, shall bow to him,
and Isr’el’s God adore.
Seek ye the Lord while yet his ear
is open to your call;
While offered mercy still is near,
before his footstool fall.
Let sinners quit their evil ways,
their evil thoughts forego:
And God, when they to him return,
returning grace will show.
He pardons with o’erflowing love:
for, hear the voice divine!
My nature is not like to yours,
nor like your ways are mine:
But far as heav’n’s resplendent orbs
beyond earth’s spot extend,
As far my thoughts, as far my ways,
your ways and thoughts transcend.
And as the rains from heav’n distil,
nor thither mount again,
But swell the earth with fruitful juice,
and all its tribes sustain:
So not a word that flows from me
shall ineffectual fall;
But universal nature prove
obedient to my call.
With joy and peace shall then be led
the glad converted lands;
The lofty mountains then shall sing,
the forests clap their hands.
Where briers grew ‘midst barren wilds,
shall firs and myrtles spring;
And nature, through its utmost bounds,
eternal praises sing.
Isaiah 55: Ho! ye that thirst, approach the spring
