Until recently I didn't know who composed the music for this classic scripture song from the 70s, but recently I learned it was composed and copyrighted by Joanne Graham as a means of teaching herself to play the guitar. .She has kindly given me permission to share it with you here.

(C)The law of the (G7)LORD is perfect,
Converting the (F) so(C)ul:
The testimony of the (G7)LORD is sure,
Making wise the (F)sim(C)ple.

More to be de(F)sired are they than (G)gold,
Yea, than much fine (Em7go(Am)ld:
Sweeter also than (F)honey(G)
And the honey(C)comb.

The statutes of the (G7)LORD are right,
Rejoicing the (F)he(C)art:
The commandment of the (G7)LORD is pure,
Enlightening the (F)ey(C)es.

More to be desired....

(C)The fear of the (G7)LORD is clean,
Enduring for (F)e(C)ver:
The judgments of the (G7)LORD are true
And righteous alto(F)ge(C)ther.

More to be desired....

(C)Moreover by (F)them is Thy servant (G)warned,
Is Thy servant (Em7)war(Am)ned:
And in keeping of (F)them(G)
There is great re(C)ward.
