It is not hard to obey when we love the one whom we obey.

To Love, To Honour And Obey
To love, to honour and obey
Her three vows on her wedding day
She loved and honoured for awhile
But she never once did obey.
Her husband quite a pleasant man
With him she always had her way
And he adhered to his marriage vows
To love, to honour and obey.
He quickly aged before his time
And poor health gave way to decay
And he died at forty nine years old
And a cheap headstone tell where he lay.
And she made sure she held her looks
And with tints and dyes she hid her gray
And she paid huge sum for new face lift
And she looked like one in her prime day.
In time she met with younger man
And though with him she did not have her way
They married and she kept her vows
To love, to honour and obey.
To love, to honour and obey
Her three vows on her wedding day
She loved and honoured for awhile
But she never once did obey.

Social Fools
If you obey societys rules
You will be societys fools
Youll obey and then disobey
Youll disobey but then youll obey
You thought your mom and dad were fools
You never wanted to listen in school
Now your mind wont go where you want to take it
You got a ride but youre not gonna make it
Youll never catch up!
Dad. pass the catsup!
Clean that mess up! listen up!
If you obey societys fools
Youll be societys tools
And youll obey and then disobey
Youll disobey but then youll obey
You thought your mom and dad were queer
You always wanted egg in your beer
Now your dog wont go
When you try to make it
Hes got a bone but hes not gonna shake it
If you take societys tools
You will make societys rules
Which youll obey and then disobey
Youll disobey but then youll obey
Thats all for now
Thats all we know
This is the end

Most of us have been taught about the need to appropriate by faith what is already ours through grace. We all desire to have more joy in our Christian life. The keys to experiencing joy are available to all of us. We need to understand the gospel of the grace of God as revealed to the Apostle Paul. Then as we put Paul's instructions into practice, we will come to know God experientially. This will cause us to know Him better which will cause us to want to obey more, and on and on it goes. Then as we learn and obey God and become focused on spiritual things instead of earthly things, we will become thankful for everything that God has provided for us in Christ. Knowledge, obedience, and thankfulness will then lead to abundant joy in our everyday life In the words of the old hymn Trust and obey, For there's no other way, To be happy in Jesus, But to trust and obey.

Governing And Obedience
The government commands us to obey,
If living inside a soul continues, we obey.
My governing is gorgeous, I obey myself,
The incoming missiles are defeated.
An incident arrived of a soul who helped me,
I was from the government, he from the helpers.
His chance to deliver service was huge,
So he engaged in a ritual too fine.
To govern the action of the best,
To specially react to the enemy,
We concern ourselves with obedience.

The ship that will not obey the helm will have to obey the rocks.
He who will not obey father, will have to obey stepfather.
Wholeheartedly
Wholeheartedly, old, yowl, drew, tree, three, hate, lad;
Children, obey your parents in Yahweh;
That it may be well with you,
And that, you may live long on this earth.
Wholeheartedly, whole, hole, woe, where, he, rate, lead;
With instructions in the land of your muse,
But try to be very obedient to all!
Wholeheartedly, heart, dear, read, red, ear, year, ware;
With peace and love in the land of joy!
Children, obey your parents in Yahweh.
Wholeheartedly, are, weed, wed, late, date, wear, doll;
With songs of love and works of peace,
But, try to be very obedient to all in this life.
Wholeheartedly, hold, told, wheat, war, raw, draw;
And like the muse of your love in the land of the living!
Children, obey your parents in Yahweh.
Wholeheartedly, hoe, heat, het, her, had, head, well, led;
And like your works as seen by all!
But, try to be very obedient to the people around you.
Wholeheartedly, lay, ray, tray, day, at, deer, reed, tear;
And like the joy of your muse with others at home! !
But children, try to obey your parents.
Wholeheartedly, heed, heard, world, word, rod, era, rode;
With the muse of the world and the works of your love,
But try to obey others in the land of your muse.
Wholeheartedly, toe, doe, do, to, hare, here, thread, art, thee;
Learn from the right people always to motivate yourselves!
For life is full of laws which are needed by all of us.
Wholeheartedly, yard, hew, threw, low, rat, yell, tar, how?
And like the sweet songs of the lovely birds up high! !
But children, try to obey your parents.
Instruction,
Entreaty,
Boldly,
Obligation;
Children, obey your parents!
And, honour your father and your mother.

Suicide Trees
Spent my whole life in love with despair
Kept my lungs full with the breath of their
Mute, atmosphere, I became what I hate,
And thus shall I remain,
To give birth to a mighty assassin armed with a weapon of words,
To defy the lies, to never compromise, No
Today my name is pain
I stood, beyond the world
Whispering secret syllables in the eyeless dark
Dancing wildly round and round on the rotting ground
Surrounded by the dead dusts of hell
This is how I delete myself and this is how I corrupt everyone else
Obey obey, betray betray
You are not unique you do not need to think
Take it, take it, I will I will I will
You succumb so nicely
Like an insect starring back, like a dying dove
My love, my love
So here we are again
Sheets are stained and bloodied
Animals scratch at my skin
Here we are again,
My face is scrapped and bloodied
Nothing left to give
I wasn't there I'm not involved, I'm innocent. It's not my fault
I wasn't there I'm not involved, I'm innocent. It's not my fault
I wasn't there I'm not involved, I'm innocent. It's not my fault
Here in The suicide trees
Here in The suicide trees
Bloody bloody bloody bloody MURDER!
So here we are again, in secret ceremonies
Changing shaping amen
Here we are again
Pretending not to notice
The illness sneaking in
I wasn't there I'm not involved, I'm innocent. It's not my fault
I wasn't there I'm not involved, I'm innocent. It's not my fault
I wasn't there I'm not involved, I'm innocent. It's not my fault
Here in The suicide trees
Here in The suicide trees
Toil and Labour, Hate your neighbour, faith and favour, obey
Toil and Labour, Hate your neighbour, faith and favour, obey
OBEY
OBEY, Here I do as I please
OBEY HERE IN THE SUICIDE TREES
OBEY, Here I do as I please
OBEY HERE IN THE SUICIDE TREES
OBEY
HATE'S YOUR NEIGHBOUR
HATE'S YOUR NEIGHBOUR
The animals scratch at my skin
No, it's not happening
it's not happening
it's not happening
it's not happening

REbel for friend Rema
The cockerel crew at break of day.
Bid working men to make their way
to where they earned their honest crust
when hunger drives a man needs must.
Obey the cockerel’s clarion call.
So harness Dobbin to the plough
and leave behind a straight furrow
or hasten to the factory
amongst the grim machinery.
Obey the cockerel’s clarion call.
Of if perchance you’re office bound
surrounded only by the sound
of papers shuffled to and fro.
You have no choice you still must go.
Obey the cockerel’s clarion call.
On winter mornings dark and cold
and summer days when it grows hot.
But I don’t care I am grown old
and have retired so I will not.
Obey the cockerel’s clarion call.

I'm going to school
I'm going to school today and I obey every time. I love school I love school I love school, I love school. I take off my backpack then I learn and then I play at recess. I never obey I can't believe I can't go home. It's still nothing, nothing and I can't try. It is nothing, nothing. I can't even try. Nothing to believe in It's still nothing.

New Look
I am neither veiled
nor unveiled
I love my God
and He loves me
I now say
I obey His words
All His words
As much as I can
Please God
Bless me
Guide my steps to you
This is what I was
And what I will be
A true Muslim
Who loves Peace
And as much
Love Jesus
Love Moses
And as much
Love Muhammad
Peace be upon them all...
God is the Most Mercifull...
I fear His anger
I ask for His forgiveness
and as much as I can
Obey His words

Obey
Stakka:
Have faith in me
I promise you
Whatever may be
Whatever we do
The final door
We see the light
But we still want more
The world is too bright
The time has come
We turn our backs
You're not the one
To be with
In the trinity
Camilla:
We lurched into the deepest night
As black as it may be
I seek to clear this clouded sight
So all of you can see
Stakka & e-type:
We could always lie
Could always try to turn them away
We could always sin
And when we win you will obey
Stakka:
We got upset
You rule the game
How can i possibly let
Us take the blame
What we used to be
What we usually are
There is nothing to see
We're past that by far
Our secrets remain
Between me and you
But i want to gain
I do what i am told to do
Camilla:
Into the pit i seek a light
To guide me on my way
The time has come to end the night
And now you will obey
Stakka & e-type:
We could always lie
Could always try to turn them away
We could always sin
And when we win you will obey

Society is well governed when its people obey the magistrates, and the magistrates obey the law.
Akhu
Nicely,
Quite lovely!
And like the muse of your lover called Akhu;
But, do you know that,
To whom you yield yourselves as servants to obey,
His of her servants you are to whom you obey? !
And like the rules of various laws on this earth,
But, it was quite lovely to see you once again.

A Journey Of Faith
For some its short, for others long
Depending on The Way
Yet each may sing the self same song
Of ‘Trust Him and obey’
Displayed beyond the realm of time
Beyond man’s wildest dream
Trust when pure is love sublime
And act of faith supreme
Obey The Lord of righteousness
Trust Jesus whilst we might
Your waywardness through Him confess
And walk within The Light
Let not this life be lived in vain
Let’s play no more the clown
Let love instead be seen to reign
And wisdom wear a crown
Consult The Lord in all you do
Reflect before you speak
Consider Christ God’s Lamb and Son
All seven days a week
For far beyond the great divide
Where time becomes no more
God promises to be your Guide
And help through Heaven’s Door
Our Father knows the future now
He knows our wayward past
He knows if here our knees would bow
We’d harvest peace at last
The place for you and I is here
The time is right today
God’s calling loud through Jesus clear
To trust Him and obey

A Choice - My Choice
I choose to obey
From all my heart
To obey His Words
As much as I can
Without blame
Lay down my heart

Love

Mercy

I am going to pray
And He will forgive....
He Is The All Merciful The Ever Merciful
And for all who Know Him Well....
He is The Forgiving
And may He forgive.

To ward of anarchy.
You teach me not to steal.
Can you teach the rodent?
You teach me not to kill.
Can you teach the cat?
You teach me not to cuckold.
Can you teach the street dog?
None of them obey;
Nor are they away from God.
I obey; not to please the God
But to ward off anarchy.

Ill Never Stand In Your Way
(words & music by heath - rose)
If you found someone new who means more than me to you.
Id never stand in your way
If you feel we must part, dont let pity rule your heart
Ill never stand in your way
I love you much too much to ever lose you
But what is to be will be and Ill obey
Ill be blue when you go but Ill never let it show.
Id never stand in your way
I loved you much too much to ever lose you
But what is to be will be and Ill obey
Ill be blue when you go but Ill never let it show
Id never stand in your way
