God’s Law Set to Music

By Eliza H. Morton

Ps. 119: 54

ELIZA H. MORTON

Set to music is God’s law, Music sweet and clear. When I keep its precepts all, What have I to fear? Glad with notes of tuneful love Pilgrimage below, Statutes of the Lord my song From the long ago.

How I love that precious law! Joyful is my heart, For the will of God is there Of my life a part; O the glory of that love, Spring of life and peace, House of pilgrimage made glad, Freedom,—full release!

Strike the key-note loud and long,— Hear, obey, and live. Angels with their harmony Tones of rapture give. Jesus kept that holy law, Doing nothing wrong. Reconcilement is for me, Law of God my song.
