Stand by the law once proclaimed from Sinai

Author: F. E. Belden Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 5:17-19 Lyrics: 1 Stand by the law once proclaimed from Sinai; Some its teachings and its force deny: What says the Saviour? now hearken and obey "Not one jot or tittle shall pass away." Chorus: Stand by the law, stand by the law: Jesus the law did magnify; Stand by the law if you hope to enter heaven; The law proves us sinners; through Christ we're forgiven. 2 Ten are its precepts, consider them again, Love to God, and love to fellow-men; Four point to God and the duty that we owe, And six, our relation to mortals show. [Chorus] 3 Sin by the law we are sinners proved to be, Christ has died that we may all be free: Free from the death which the broken law demands, But not from obedience to its commands. [Chorus] 4 Now if the law was unknown till Sinai, All were righteous who before did die! And, if its precepts by Christ were done away, There lives not a sinner on earth to-day! [Chorus] 5 All yearly sabbaths, and offerings the same, Lost their meaning when the Saviour came; But kill the law, and the devil goes to heaven! No need of a Saviour, or sins forgiven! [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Scriptures, Law, Sabbath
