O the kindness of our Father
Lavish generosity!
Power and goodness bound together
To provide our every need!
Though your voice breaks mighty cedars
Calls from nothing all to be!
Every word now gently leads us
To the pastures rich and green
Thank you father
Your love is all we need
Thank you father!
For loving even me
O the goodness of our Father
Sparing not the Son you loved-
He who brought eternal pleasure-
For the guilty given up!
Is it true he hung forsaken
Bearing righteous wrath for us?
Enemies now made your children
Lavished with your perfect love!
Thank you father…
O the love of God our Father
Burns for us with holy zeal!
Jealous for our full devotion
Till your glory is revealed.
May our hearts beat holy passion
Yearning for our home above
Where at last redeemed, adopted
We’ll forever know your love
Thank you father…
Song
Gentle and Lowly
Gentle and Lowly is inspired by Dane Ortlund’s book of the same title. At the start of that book he says,
“In the four gospel accounts given to us in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John – eighty-nine chapters of biblical text- there’s only one place where Jesus tells us about his own heart”. That place is Matthew 11:28-29:
Come to me, all you who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Taking its theme from the book, this song is a meditation and celebration of the heart of Christ for sinners and sufferers like us.

Gentle and lowly, patient and kind
Ever approachable saviour of mine
All of my weakness meets your embrace,
Failure and sin meet compassion and grace
Gentle and lowly! Patient and kind!
Ever approachable saviour of mine!
Seeing my suffering, knowing my fear
Mercy compels you in love to draw near
Joy without measure flows through your soul
Taking my burdens and bearing them all!
Seeing my suffering, knowing my fear
Mercy compels you in love to draw near!
Humble redeemer there on the tree
Nothing could stop you from suffering for me
Speechless in wonder, angels above
Never had seen such self-emptying love!
Humble redeemer there on the tree
Nothing could stop you from suffering for me
Gentle and lowly, patient and kind
No other saviour like Jesus I find
Though my heart changes, yours never does
Ever unchanging compassion and love!
Gentle and lowly, patient and kind
No other saviour like Jesus I find
No other saviour like Jesus I find
