There's a book I know, written long ago.
That reflects the mind of God.
Where wisdom lives and love forgives, Through mercies washed with blood.
And written in the Bible,
By the patriarchs of old, Is the gospel of redeeming grace, Worth more to me than
gold.
And found between the covers,
In stories often told, Ten laws of love engraved in stone, That can't be bought or
sold.
Each one a priceless masterpiece, That no earthly wealth could buy,
Was sanctioned by the blood of Christ, That he shed for you and I.
Ten laws of love,
That God has given us,
And if only we would trust Him, And obey.
And if we believe, His truth sets us free, We're free indeed.
We can stand upon, God's promises, Today.
There are laws that rule the universe, That govern you and me,
That were written by my Savior, Who was slain on Calvary,
And if they could have been repealed, Why did Jesus have to die, To make
atonement for our sins, The Lamb of God was crucified.
Each law reflects the Savior's love, For all of His creation.
For every woman, child and man, Born of every tongue and nation,
Like candles glowing in the night, For those with eyes to see.
They teach His children wrong from right, And they set His people free.
Ten laws of love,
That God has given us,
And if only we would trust Him, And obey.
And if we believe, His truth sets us free, We're free indeed, We can stand upon God's
promises, Today.
Oh, but what a shame, I've heard them say, We don't need God's laws today,
Let us decide what's right from wrong, And send them back where they belong.
So go your way and close the door, We don't want you here no more.
Your rules aren't what we're looking for, So let the devil have his way.
There's a narrow way to glory,
And there's a broad way paved with shame,
But those who take the narrow gate, Will never thirst again.
And when our trials are over, With the angels we will sing, As we thank God for
His gift of grace, Through Jesus Christ our King.
Ten laws of love,
That God has given us,
And if only we would trust Him, And obey.
And if we believe, His truth sets us free, We're free indeed.
We can stand upon God's promises, Won't you stand upon God's promises,
We can stand upon God's promises, Today.
There's a book I know, Written long ago, That reflects the mind of God,
