The Law Commands and Makes Us Know
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #289 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Word Law and Gospel 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 discovers guilt and sin
And shows 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 man that 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 that trusts the promise lives.

Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #XXXI (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Law and Gospel; Law and Gospel First Line: Dread Sinai roars, the man be curst Lyrics: 1 Dread Sinai roars, "the man be curst,
"That doth one wilful sin commit:
"Death and damnation fro the first
"Without relief, and infinite."
2 Thus flames the mount! and round the earth
Thunder, and fire, and vengeance flings:
But, Jesus, thy dear gasping breath,
And Calvary say gentler things:
3 "Pardon, and grace, and boundless love,
"Streaming along a Saviour's blood,
"And life, and joys, and crowns above,
"Obtain'd by a dear bleeding God."
4 Hark, how he prays (the charming sound
Dwells on his dying lips)"forgive;"
And every groan and gasping wound
Cries, "Father, let the rebels live."
5 Go, you that rest upon the law,
And toil, and seek salvation there,
Look to the flame that Moses saw,
And shrink, and tremble, and despair.
6 But I'll retire beneath the cross,
Saviour, at thy dear feet I lie;
And the keen sword that Justice draws,
Flaming and red, shall pass me by. Languages: English

The Law of God Is Good and Wise
Author: Matthias Loy Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #295 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Word Law and Gospel Lyrics: 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.
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.
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.
4 When men the offered help disdain
And wilfully in sin remain,
Its terror in their ear resounds
And keeps their wickedness in bounds.
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 power to justify.
6 To Jesus we for refuge flee,
Who from the curse has set us free,
And humbly worship at His throne,
Saved by His grace through faith alone.
Amen.
