God's perfect law converts the soul

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #203 (1886) Topics: Worship Law of God Lyrics: 1 God's perfect law converts the soul, Reclaims from false desires; With sacred wisdom his sure word The ignorant inspires. 2 The statutes of the Lord are just, And bring sincere delight; His pure commands of living truth Assist the feeblest sight. 3 His perfect worship here is fixed, On sure foundations laid; His equal laws are in the scales Of truth and justice weighed; 4 Of more esteem than golden mines, Or gold refined with skill; More sweet than honey, or the drops That from the comb distill. 5 My trusty counselors they are, And friendly warning give; Divine rewards attend on those Who by thy precepts live.

Psalm 119 Part 5

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.268 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Delight in the law of God; Law of God delight in it First Line: O how I love thy holy law! Lyrics: O how I love thy holy law! 'Tis daily my delight; And thence my meditations draw Divine advice by night. My waking eyes prevent the day To meditate thy word; My soul with longing melts away To hear thy gospel, Lord. How doth thy word my heart engage! How well employ my tongue! And in my tiresome pilgrimage, Yields me a heav'nly song. Am I a stranger or at home, 'Tis my perpetual feast; Not honey dropping from the comb So much allures the taste. No treasures so enrich the mind; Nor shall thy word be sold For loads of silver well refined, Nor heaps of choicest gold. When nature sinks, and spirits droop, Thy promises of grace Are pillars to support my hope, And there I write thy praise. Scripture: Psalm 119 Languages: English

Cleanse me from hidden stain; keep me from wilful sins, nor let them o'er me reign; and then I upright shall appear and be from great transgressions clear. 5 Whene'er you search my life, may all my thoughts within and all the words I speak your full approval win. O Lord, you are a Rock to me, and my Redeemer you shall be. Scripture: Psalm 1:1 Languages: English Tune Title: HUTCHBY
