The gospel stands in Moses’ place

Verse 1
The gospel stands in Moses place:
The foes of Jesus and his grace
Are scatter’d by a word,
Th’ accusers all are fled and gone,
Misery with Mercy left alone,
The sinner with her Lord.

Verse 2
If left alone with Thee I am,
Though cover’d o’re with guilt and shame,
I nothing have to fear;
My Saviour in my Judge I meet,
And wait, a sinner at thy feet,
Thy pardning voice to hear.
