Moses and Christ; Or, Sins against the Law and Gospel, John 1 17 Heb. 3 3 5 6 and 10 28 29 |
1 The law by Moses came, But peace, and truth, and love, Were brought by Christ, a nobler name, Descending from above. 2 Amidst the house of God Their different works were done; Moses a faithful servant stood, But Christ a faithful Son. 3 Then to his new commands Be strict obedience paid; O'er all his Father's house he stands The sovereign and the head. 4 The man that durst despise The law that Moses brought, Behold! how terribly he dies For his presumptuous fault. 5 But sorer vengeance falls On that rebellious race, Who hate to hear when Jesus calls, And dare resist his grace.
