God gave us directions to help us each day
For our protection so we need to obey
If we listen, the rules can be good
To help with decisions and do as we should
Chorus:
So I can obey for God loves me
So I can obey, for God knows me
So I can obey every day
Oh Lord, I'll obey
When Hannah obeyed, God said with a smile
"You have been faithful, I'll give you a child"
When Noah obeyed, God kept him dry
And the rainbow came as a sign in the sky
For Joshua the walls came tumbling down
For he obeyed 'cause he marched around
But Jonah was different, he didn't obey
The whale ate him up but then He prayed
Elijah obeyed and God heard his desire
God sent him to heaven on a chariot of fire
And David obeyed and the giant was slain
We can do so much if we call on His name
So God gave me my parents and they help me know
To learn and to listen, obey as I grow
And I learn from His word as I go
