Entrance | There’s a Wideness In God’s Mercy
There’s a wideness in God’s mercy
like the wideness of the sea
There’s a kindness in God’s justice
which is more than liberty
There is plentiful redemption
in the blood that has been shed
There is joy for all the members
in the sorrows of the Head
There is welcome for the sinner
and a promised grace made good
There is mercy with the Savior
There is healing in Christ’s blood
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
So be merciful
just as our God is merciful
Be merciful
just as our God is merciful to us
Let there be a wideness in our mercy
Let there be a kindness in our hearts
Oh, may our lives be merciful
For the love of God is broader
than the measures of the mind
And the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind
If our love were but more simple
we would know the living Word
And our lives would be thanksgiving
in the kindness of our Lord
So be merciful
just as our God is merciful
Be merciful
just as our God is merciful to us
Let there be a wideness in our mercy
Let there be a kindness in our hearts
Oh, may our lives be merciful

Offertory | I Turn to You, Lord
I turn to You, Lord
in time of trouble
and You fill me with the joy of salvation
I turn to You, Lord
in time of trouble
and You fill me with the joy of salvation
Blessed is He whose fault is taken away
whose sin is covered
Blessed the man to whom
the Lord imputes not guilt
in whose spirit there is no guile
I turn to You, Lord
in time of trouble
and You fill me with the joy of salvation
I turn to You, Lord
in time of trouble
and You fill me with the joy of salvation
Then I acknowledge my sin to You
my guilt I covered not
I said, “I confess my faults to the Lord”
and You took away the guilt of my sin
Be glad in the Lord
and rejoice, you just
exult, all you upright of heart
I turn to You, Lord
in time of trouble
and You fill me with the joy of salvation
I turn to You, Lord
in time of trouble
and You fill me with the joy of salvation
