Kate Campbell - There's A Wideness In God's Mercy текст песни

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

But we make His love too narrow
By false limits of our own
And we magnify His strictness
With a zeal He will not own

For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of our mind
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind

There's a wideness in God's mercy
Like the wideness of the sea
