When God confirmed his law to men
Author: R. F. Cottrell Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When God confirmed his law to men
Through Israel's waiting flock,
He spake aloud his precepts ten,
And graved them in the rock.
2 Within the tent's most holy place
That sacred law was brought,
Nor can the hand of man efface
What great Jehovah wrought.
3 But God well knew perdition's son
Would ne'er his precepts love;
He gave a duplicate alone,
And kept his own above.
4 There in the tabernacle true,
Pitched not by hands of men,
That sacred law is kept in view,
The holy precepts ten. Topics: Worship Law of God Used With Tune: AVON

Hugh Wilson
1766 - 1824 Composer of "AVON" in The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book Hugh Wilson (b. Fenwick, Ayrshire, Scotland, c. 1766; d. Duntocher, Scotland, 1824) learned the shoemaker trade from his father. He also studied music and mathematics and became proficient enough in various subjects to become a part-time teacher to the villagers. Around 1800, he moved to Pollokshaws to work in the cotton mills and later moved to Duntocher, where he became a draftsman in the local mill. He also made sundials and composed hymn tunes as a hobby. Wilson was a member of the Secession Church, which had separated from the Church of Scotland. He served as a manager and precentor in the church in Duntocher and helped found its first Sunday school. It is thought that he composed and adapted a number of psalm tunes, but only two have survived because he gave instructions shortly before his death that all his music manuscripts were to be destroyed.
