OBEDIENCE
1. Can you be
obedient,
To the Lord of all,
Though the earth
should totter,
Though the heav'ns
should fall?
Face e'en a
disaster,
With a faith-filled
heart,
Knowing naught can
harm him
Who with God will
start?
2. Can you be
obedient,
To the Lord you
serve,
Never even flinch,
friend,
Never even swerve;
Though your next
step onward
Seems to lead to
death?
Can you then obey
Him
Without bated
breath?
3. Can you trust
your Leader
When He bids you go
Right into a battle
with a mighty foe?
Can you step up
briskly
And with joy obey?
Can you fight the
battle,
Till the end of
day?
4. Can you? Then
beloved,
God just waits for
you;
Listen for His
orders,
Glad His will to
do;
Then when soldiers
muster,
At the set of sun,
And your name is
mentioned
Christ will say,
"Well done."
