Just What the Doctor Ordered

J-ust what the doctor ordered, 
E-agerly do it without delay; 
S-ubmit to the instruction, 
S-o the sickness shall go
A-way.

M-an's sins and wicked ways
A-re suppliers of decay; 
E-radicate the iniquity to brighten up our darkest day.

T-o follow God's command
O-bliterates transgression; 
R-elieving the heartaches, 
R-eady for great salvation.
E-ternal life is in store for those who listen to God's word; 
S-eventh October obedience is just what the doctor ordered.
