50. Moses and Christ

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.
