Song Story: THE MUSIC:
It has been my prayer for years to take God's Own Words in the Psalms and bring them back to MUSIC. God has been answering this prayer. These are written in His guidance and creativity... not my 'skills'. I just develop them for Him. -- ddo

ALEPH, the Ox, representing GOD in His Power
א Aleph
1 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, Who walk in the law of the Lord!
2 Blessed are those who keep His testimonies,
Who seek Him with the whole heart!
3 They also do no iniquity; They walk in His ways.
4 You have commanded us To keep Your precepts diligently.
5 Oh, that my ways were directed To keep Your statutes!
6 Then I would not be ashamed, When I look into all Your commandments.
7 I will praise You with uprightness of heart,
When I learn Your righteous judgments.
8 I will keep Your statutes; Oh, do not forsake me utterly!

QUESTION: In Matthew 5:17, Jesus SPECIFICALLY said that He did not destroy God's Law... that the Law will not pass away before every part of this earth does.
So....
how can people quickly read God's Word like this and say that the
commandments that show WHAT GOD WANTS US TO DO are no longer valid?
IT'S NOT LOGICAL TO SAY THAT.
Even though the Law cannot save us... only Jesus's sacrifice and our acceptance of Him as LORD can ...Romans 9:10.... that does NOT mean the Law has ended!
LET US CONTINUE TO DELIGHT OURSELVES in God's statutes!
They show His love and -- JUST as importantly -- show how we who love HIM can
demonstrate that love... by seeking to follow His way for God and not "heaven".
