The law of God is holy, good, To practise good it doth command; Its purpose is to clearly show That we cannot meet God’s demand. |
2
|
Yet in our mind there is a law Which always tries the good to do; But in our members is a law Which always doth this law subdue. |
3
|
The law within our mind is good, ’Tis of our human life obtained At our creation from the Lord, That good behavior be maintained. |
4
|
The law within our members is The evil of satanic life; Into our members at the fall It came thru Satan’s subtle strife. |
5
|
This evil law of Satan is The law of sin, in us its seat; ’Tis stronger than the law of good And always brings it to defeat. |
6
|
But in our spirit is a law, Which is the Spirit’s law of life; ’Tis of the very life of God Which we from our rebirth derive. |
7
|
This law divine the strongest is, Transcending all the others o’er; From sin’s law freeing, it fulfills The full requirement of God’s law. |
8
|
We then must always set our mind Upon the spirit deep within, And not upon the things of flesh, The body ruined by the sin. |
9
|
To set the mind upon the flesh Is sin and death and darkest night; The mind upon the spirit set Is life and peace and full of light. |
10
|
This is the way of true release! This is the way of victory! Lord, may we in the spirit live, And by the Spirit walk with Thee. |
