What Does God Require of Me?

 

Date : 2020-01-31
Speaker : Professor Paul Naumann
Micah 6:6-8
With what shall I come before the Lord,
And bow myself before the High God?
Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings,
With calves a year old?
7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,
Ten thousand rivers of oil?
Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression,
The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?

8 He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?

Hymn: TLH 389, st. 1,2,3,6: Not What these Hands have Done

Hymnary.org Organ Audio

1. Not what these hands have done 
Can save this guilty soul; 
Not what this toiling flesh has borne 
Can make my spirit whole. 

2. Not what I feel or do 
Can give me peace with God; 
Not all my prayers and sighs and tears 
Can bear my awe-full load. 

3. Thy work alone, O Christ, 
Can ease this weight of sin; 
Thy blood alone, O Lamb of God, 
Can give me peace within. 

6. I bless the Christ of God, 
I rest on love divine, 
And with unfaltering lip and heart 
I call this Savior mine.
