Text: | Most perfect is the law of God |
Tune: | KINSMAN |
Composer: | James McGranahan, 1840-1907 |
1 Most perfect is the law of God,
Restoring those that stray;
His testimony is most sure,
Proclaiming wisdom's way.
Refrain:
O how love I thy law!
O how love I thy law!
It is my meditation all the day
O how love I thy law!
O how love I thy law!
It is my meditation all the day.
2 The precepts of the Lord are right;
With joy they fill the heart;
The Lord's commandments all are pure,
And clearest light impart. [Refrain]
3 The fear of God is undefiled
And ever shall endure;
The statutes of the Lord are truth
And righteousness most pure. [Refrain]
4 They warn from ways of wickedness
Displeasing to the Lord,
And in the keeping of His Word
There is a great reward. [Refrain]
Amen.
