Lyrics
Verse 1
The law of God is good and wise, and sets His will before our eyes,
Shows us the way of righteousness, and dooms to death when we transgress.
Verse 2
Its light of holiness imparts the knowledge of our sinful hearts,
That we may see our lost estate and seek deliv'rance ere too late.
Verse 3
To those who help in Christ have found and would in works of love abound
It shows what deeds are His delight and should be done as good and right.
Verse 4
When men the offered help disdain and willfully in sin remain,
Its terror in their ear resounds and keeps their wickedness in bounds.
Verse 5
The law is good, but since the fall its holiness condemns us all;
It dooms us for our sin to die and has no pow'r to justify....
