This portion of scripture is so poetic! It is reassuring of the confidence that we have in God's word.
The law of the LORD is perfect,
converting the soul:
The testimony of the LORD is sure,
making wise the simple.
The statutes of the LORD are right,
rejoicing the heart:
The commandment of the LORD is pure,
enlightening the eyes.
The fear of the LORD is clean,
enduring forever:
The judgements of the LORD are true
and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold,
yea, than much fine gold:
Sweeter also than honey a
the honeycomb.
Moreover by them is thy
servant warned:
And in keeping of them
there is great reward.
This webpage has music to sing these verses with, verbatim. I am going to learn this song with our children this week! I am excited to have found this song!
P.S. Apparently, I grew up under a rock! This seems to be a fairly common song for children who grew up in Christian homes to have learned in their youth. Since writing this post I found a recording of the song that I really enjoyed. I'll share it here for your enjoyment, as well! :)
I hope you have a good week! Do you like to sing scripture songs? Do you have any resources that you would like to share? Do you make up your own tunes? I'd love to hear about it in the comments section!
I have never heard this as a song either. Thank you for this reminder of how wonderful God's Word is in meeting all our needs. We serve a wonderful God. Hugs
ReplyDeleteI love this Scripture and song! Thanks for sharing, it’s been one of my favorites for a long time.
ReplyDeletePsalm 19 is such a beautiful Psalm, this seems like a wonderful way to memorize Psalm 19. I sometimes find listening to a verse set to music is helpful in memorization. Thank you for sharing this! : ) May you have a blessed day!
