Hymnal: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, in Three Books #II.CXXI (1793) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: The law commands and makes us know Lyrics: 1 The law commands and makes us know
What duties to our God we owe;
But 'tis the gospel must reveal
Where lies our strength to do his will.
2 The law uncovers guilt and sin,
And shews how vile our hearts have been;
The gospel only can express
Forgiving love and cleansing grace.
3 What curses doth the law denounce
Against the one who fails but once?
But in the gospel Christ appears,
Pard'ning the guilt of num'rous years.
4 My soul, no more attempt to draw
Thy life and comfort from the law!
Fly to the hope the gospel gives:
The man who trusts the promise lives. Languages: English
The law and gospel distinguished

The law commands, and makes us know
What duties to our God we owe;
But 'tis the gospel must reveal
Where lies our strength to do his will.
The law discovers guilt and sin,
And shows how vile our hearts have been;
Only the gospel can express
Forgiving love and cleansing grace.
What curses doth the law denounce
Against the man that fails but once!
But in the gospel Christ appears
Pard'ning the guilt of num'rous years.
My soul, no more attempt to draw
Thy life and comfort from the law;
Fly to the hope the gospel gives;
The man that trusts the promise lives.
