The Law by Moses came

Appears in 89 hymnals Scripture: Job 1:17 Lyrics: 1 The Law by Moses came, but Peace, and Truth, and Love, Were brought by Christ (a nobler Name) descending from above. 2 Amidst the House of God their diff'rent Works were done; Moses a faithful Servant stood, but Christ a faithful Son. 3 Then to his new Commands be strict Obedience paid; O'er all his Father's House he stands the Sovereign and the Head. 4 The Man that durst despise the law that Moses brought, Behold! how terribly he dies for his presumptuous Fault! 5 But sorer Vengeance falls on that rebellious Race, Who hate to hear when Jesus calls, and dare resist his Grace.

Chorus: Gathering buds, gathering buds, Wonderful care will be giv'n; Jesus is gathering day after day, Buds for the palace of heav'n. 2 Full blooming flowers alone will not do, Some must be young and ungrown; So the frail buds He is gathering, too, Beautiful gems for His throne. [Chorus] 3 Fathers and mothers, weep not or be sad, Still on the Savior rely; You shall behold them again and be glad, Beautiful flowers on high.
