Can You Be Obedient?

Download Midi

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 faithfilled heart,
Knowing naught can harm him
Who with God will start?

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?

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?

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.¡¨
