He is calling, come to me

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: Elmhurst Hymnal #46 (1921) Meter: 8.7.8.7 with refrain First Line: There's a wideness in God's mercy 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. Refrain: He is calling, "Come to me!" He is calling, "Come to me!" He is calling, "Come to me!" Lord, I gladly come to Thee. 2 There’s no place where earthly sorrows Are more felt than up in heav’n; There’s no place where earthly failings Have such kindly judgment giv’n. 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 take Him at His word; And our lives would be all sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord.
