Hymn inspired by Romans 5 - God of consistency - Suitable for Aldersgate Sunday
1 God of consistency, love without limits,
ground of all being and all that will be,
compass us round with compassionate kindness,
higher than mountains, as deep as the sea.
2 God of all graciousness, walking beside us,
there at our birthing, yet on beyond death,
God of transcendence, unrivalled, majestic,
God beyond knowledge, yet closer than breath.
3 God in all being, yet ground of existence,
God beyond grasping, unbounded by law,
while we are moved to sing loud alleluias,
here would we worship in silence and awe.
Andrew E Pratt (born 1948)
