O how I love thy holy law!
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #103 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Delight in the law of God; Law of God delight in it 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

Salvation unto Us Has Come
Author: Paul Speratus Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #430 (2018) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Law of God Lyrics: 1 Salvation unto us has come
by God’s free grace and favor.
Our works cannot avert our doom;
the law can save us never.
Faith looks to Jesus Christ alone,
who for his people did atone;
he is our one Redeemer.
2 What God did in his law demand
and none to him could render
caused wrath and woe on ev'ry hand
for man, the vile offender.
Our flesh has not the pure desires
God's holy law of us requires,
and lost is our condition.
3 It was a false, misleading dream
that God his law had given
so sinners could themselves redeem
and by their works gain heaven.
The law is just a mirror bright
to bring the inbred sin to light
that lurks within our nature.
4 From sin our flesh could not abstain;
sin held its sway unceasing.
The task was hopeless and in vain;
our guilt was e’er increasing.
None can remove sin’s poisoned dart
or purify our guileful heart,
so deep is our corruption.
5 Yet as the law must be fulfilled
or we must die despairing,
Christ Jesus came; God’s wrath he stilled,
our human nature sharing.
The law he has for us obeyed
and thus the Father’s vengeance stayed
which over us had rulèd.
6 All blessing, honor, thanks, and praise
to Father, Son, and Spirit,
the God who saved us by his grace--
all glory to his merit!
O triune God in heav’n above,
who has revealed your saving love,
your blessèd name be hallowed. Scripture: Romans 3:21-31 Languages: English Tune Title: ES IST DAS HEIL

Jehovah's perfect law
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #448 (1961) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Christian Life The Law of God; Law of God Lyrics: 1 Jehovah's perfect law
Restores the soul again;
His testimony sure
Gives wisdom unto men;
The precepts of the Lord are right,
And fill the heart with great delight.
2 The Lord's commands are pure,
They light and joy restore;
Jehovah's fear is clean,
Enduring evermore;
His statutes, let the world confess,
Are wholly truth and righteousness.
3 They are to be desired Above the finest gold;
Than honey from the comb
More sweetness far they hold;
With warnings they thy servant guard,
In keeping them is great reward.
4 His errors who can know?
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 When thou dost search my life,
May all my thoughts within
And all the words I speak
Thy full approval win.
O Lord, thou art a rock to me,
And my Redeemer thou shalt be.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 19:7-14 Languages: English Tune Title: HADDAM
Jehovah's perfect law
