WHO WALK IN THE LAW OF THE LORD

WITH ALL MY HEART I SEEK YOU; LET ME NOT STRAY FROM YOUR COMMANDS.
WITHIN MY HEART I TREASURE YOUR PROMISE, THAT I MAY NOT SIN AGAINST YOU.
BE GOOD TO YOUR SERVANT, THAT I MAY LIVE AND KEEP YOUR WORDS. OPEN MY
EYES, THAT I MAY CONSIDER THE WONDERS OF YOUR LAW.

The Summary of the
Law (Mark

This is the
first commandment:
HEAR O
ISRAEL,
THE LORD OUR GOD,
THE LORD IS ONE!
THEREFORE YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD
WITH ALL YOUR HEART,
WITH ALL YOUR SOUL,
WITH ALL YOUR MIND,
AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.

There
is no greater commandment
