By these may I be warn'd betimes; Who knows the guilt within? Lord, save me from presumptuous crimes, Cleanse me from secret sin! So may the words my lips express, The thoughts that throng my mind, O Lord, my strength and righteousness! With Thee acceptance find. Scripture: Psalm 19 Languages: English

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #197 (1886) Topics: Worship Law of God Lyrics: 1 God's law demands one living faith, And not a crowd of lifeless creeds; Its warrant is a firm "God saith;" Its claim not words, but living deeds. 2 Yet, Lord, forgive thy holy law Grows tarnished in our earthly clasp; Pure in itself, without a flaw, It dims in our too worldly grasp. 3 Forgive the sacrilege, and take From every soul the unholy stain, And help us for thy Son's dear sake, To keep thy perfect law again.

Long shall thy sacred precepts shine, Firm as the eternal hills shall stand. 2 God's covenant shall e'er abide, Though heaven and earth shall pass away; That rule which is the angel's guide Shall I not fear to disobey? 3 With all my power, from morn till night, I'll publish 'mong the sons of men That sacred law, though others scorn To keep thy holy precepts ten. 4 O that an angel's tongue were mine! Then would I magnify that word, Which, echoing from lips divine, From Sinai's rugged mount was heard. 5 And when old earth shall be restored To Eden beauty, fair and bright, And God himself shall dwell with men, Still in that law shall I delight.
