REV. JOHN r. PERKINS
IF YOU OBEY GODS WORD
OBEY HIM
God give to me a mind to think
And a nose / say to smell
An ear to hear an eyes to see
And mouth to taste as well.
There are no excuses for leaders
The narrow path is right
But yet come love that broad road
Where they are always in fight.
III
Jesus sent his comforter
To guide US all as well
Long as we walk this narrow path
It's a path to Heaven or hell.
Nv
Too many initiating in Gods
House
And claiming a part in Christ
When they are only Hypocrites
And living a slufoot life.
v
That Importing won't sing this
song
I'm glad Salvation is free
They are charging for everything
they do
Some have their eyes on me.
vi
Jesus gives every shepherd
charge to keep
And His Father to Glorify
To all who walk that narrow path
He has a home for them on high.
VII
The disease of sin is spreading
each day
And the end is near at hand
Since virtue has very poor
chance
With the sin that's all over this
land.
The virtue of our race we are told
Is the wealth of our race today
And yet sin is robbing us of our
wealth
And with your soul you are going
to pay.
Are you going to lose your soul
For the lust of this world today
Jesus gave the power to men on
earth
Now women are going this way.
X
Let every man abide in his own
calling
Stop calling the women this way
A disease Of sin is in the calling
And leading the world astray.
