A Catechism for Girls and Boys

In a revised edition of this catechism, there is a different answer given to this question. I’ve given that one in the first comment on this post and I hope you’ll tell me which answer you think is better.

Part III: Questions about Salvation

93. Q. What is righteousness?
       A. It is God’s goodness as revealed in his law, and as honored in Christ’s perfect obedience to that law.

Sunday's Hymn: I Will Sing the Wondrous Story

I will sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me.
How He left His home in glory
For the cross of Calvary.

Refrain

Yes, I’ll sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me,
Sing it with the saints in glory,
Gathered by the crystal sea.

I was lost, but Jesus found me,
Found the sheep that went astray,
Threw His loving arms around me,
Drew me back into His way.

I was bruised, but Jesus healed me,
Faint was I from many a fall,
Sight was gone, and fears possessed me,
But He freed me from them all.

Days of darkness still come o’er me,
Sorrow’s path I often tread,
But the Savior still is with me;
By His hand I’m safely led.

He will keep me till the river
Rolls its waters at my feet;
Then He’ll bear me safely over,
Where the loved ones I shall meet.

—Fran­cis H. Row­ley
