142. OBEDIENCE TO THE WORD

Previous
Next

​Author:  Unknown
​Composer:  Johannes Schmidlin (1722-1772)​

1. Thy word, O Lord, forever is
    The mirror where we see
    Our faults and duties as they are,
    Our likeness unto Thee.
 
2. Can we our imperfections see
    Without a humble sigh?
    Should we neglect God’s precious word
    And lightly pass it by?
 
3. His word obey and warning take;
    His wisdom will prevail.
    For if we know, and heed it not,
    It is of no avail.
 
4. Salvation through our faith is found;
    No works of law we need.
    Though baptized, yet our hope is vain
    If we His word don’t heed.
 
5. The wrath of God lies on the world,
    On whom its ways pursue,
    Yet grace enough is found in God
    To live in Him anew.

Special thanks to the Apostolic Christians who diligently labored to keep their rich musical heritage alive when most other denominations forsook it in the challenging battle of changing cultures.
​
Thanks be to those souls who labored to write and compose this treasure of praise, many now only known to GOD!

Above all, thanks, praise, and glory be to GOD!
