Obedience

Here am I striving to obey* the Spirit’s guidance Despite my frailty upon righteous stance While subduing carnality’s endurance… Help me, my God, as I depend on Your mighty performance. Here am I persevering to follow Bible’s instruction Denouncing every foolishness and perversion As I abide in God along His wise prescription… Help me, my God in standing upon heavenly conviction. Here am I trying to please my Master by faith’s steadfastness Smiting guilt of iniquities with its destructiveness I need to Him first and His righteousness… Help me, my God, prevail against wickedness. Here am I praying for the rescue of the lost from hell’s fury Clinging to God along His truth’s sure victory Subduing the Devil against transgression-sown misery… Help me, my God, abound in Your service-territory. *Deuteronomy 13:4 Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
