The great command Jehovah gave

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: On The Ten Commandments of God Lyrics: 1 The great command Jehovah gave, No other Gods but only me Shall ye my chosen People have, Your only trust in me shall be. 2 No graven image shall ye make, Nor to such helpless creatures bow; Nor them for your salvation take, As the blind savage nations do. 3 Ye shall not take my Name in vain, I am your just and holy Lord; Unpunish'd ye cannot remain Who thus profane my sacred word. 4 Remember well the Sabbath-day, It is the day I have ordain'd For men to spend in such a way; That saving knowledge may be gain'd. 5 Honour thy parents with delight, And help and succour them always; For that is lawful just and right; Thou shalt be blest with length of days. 6 Thy fellow-man thou shalt not kill, For Satan was a murd'rer first; All murd'rers do the Devil's will, And like the devils shall be curs'd. 7 Thou shalt not steal nor yet defraud Thy fellow-men of what they claim, 'Tis breaking of the law of God, And brings on man both guilt and shame. 8 Adultery that horrid act! Commit thou not that shameful deed; They who are guilty of such fact, Their ways unto destruction lead. 9 False evidence thou shalt not bear, For that could cost thy neighbour's life, In ev'ry cause the truth declare, To settle all debates and strife. 10 Thy neighbour's wife, nor what he hath Thou shalt not covet, seek or crave; But trust the Lord for life and death, And be content with what you have. 11 Great God to thee I humbly pray: Fill us with holy fear and awe; Make us afraid to disobey Or break thy just and holy law.

Almighty Lord Of Earth And Heaven

Author: David Denike; C. H. L. Schuette Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: The Ten Commandments First Line: Almighty Lord of earth and heav'n Lyrics: 1 Almighty Lord of earth and heav'n, The Ten Commandments Thou hast giv'n Reveal how wicked I have been And make me dread the curse of sin. 2 I've loved the creature more than Thee And sinned against Thy majesty; My love and trust to Thee denied, On self and man my soul relied. 3 My lips have oft, from heart profane, Employed Thy holy name in vain; Forgetful of Thy cov'nant grace, How seldom have I sought Thy face! 4 In sinful cares, or work, or play, I've often spent Thy holy day, Despised Thy Word, strayed from Thy fold, And left Thy benefits untold. 5 My parents oft I've disobeyed, Their good with evil deeds repaid; I've been unchaste in word and deed And careless of my neighbor's need. 6 With hateful thoughts my heart's been stained, Nor have I aye my tongue restrained; I've coveted what was not mine, And so transgressed Thy law divine. 7 Ah, how my sins are multiplied When by Thy law my life is tried! O jealous God, do pity me And mark not mine iniquity! 8 Let grace to judgment be preferred; Remove the curse I have incurred; For Jesus' sake my sins forgive, And may I to Thy glory live.
