"Cursed be he that confirmeth not all the words of this law to do them. And all the people shall say, Amen" (Deuteronomy 27:26). "How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation?" (Hebrews 2:3).
The Law of God has taught us,
But by it we're not saved.
It was the Law that brought us
To see we were depraved.
Hopeless, helpless we were led
To see that we were cursed.
Condemned by what the Law had said,
We waited for the worst.
What joy it was, in view of this,
To hear God's declaration!
Led by Law, we found the bliss
Proclaimed in His salvation!
No escape! That's what we saw
Until our Savior came.
Confirmed as sinners by the Law,
With no escape from shame.
Led by Law, we learned to flee,
To Christ our dearest Friend,
Who tasted death for you and me,
And loved us to the end.
