May the Law of Moses convict you
In that you may never uphold its weight,
Just as the Gospel of Jesus compels you
With the good news that you are a saint
When your stone tablets break.

Reading this again, it's more hopeful than I first recognized. The stone tablets break but, you still have the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
