Obedience song lyrics | "Key to Obeying God Is to Accept the Newest Light"

Verse 1

If you can’t accept new light

and grasp God’s work today,

and do not seek it or else doubt it,

or pass judgment on it or scrutinize and analyze it,

then you have no mind to obey God.

Verse 2

If, when the light of the here and now appears,

you still treasure the light of yesterday

and oppose God’s new work,

you are nothing more than a joke.

You’re one of those who deliberately oppose God.

Chorus

The key to obeying God is to accept the new light

and be able to appreciate it.

The key to obeying God is appreciating the new light

and putting it into practice.

The key to obeying God is practicing the new light.

Only this is true obedience.

Verse 3

Those who do not have the will to thirst for God

are incapable of being of a mind to obey God.

They can only oppose God.

They can only oppose God

as a result of their satisfaction with the status quo.

Chorus

The key to obeying God is to accept the new light

and be able to appreciate it.

The key to obeying God is appreciating the new light

and putting it into practice.

The key to obeying God is practicing the new light.

Only this is true obedience.

Bridge

Those who are without the slightest obedience to God,

who merely acknowledge God’s name,

and have some sense of God’s dearness and loveliness,

yet don’t keep pace with the Holy Spirit,

those who do not obey the present work

or the present words of the Holy Spirit,

such people just live amid God’s grace,

will not be made perfect or gained by Him.

Chorus

The key to obeying God is to accept the new light

and be able to appreciate it.

The key to obeying God is appreciating the new light,

and putting it into practice.

The key to obeying God is practicing the new light.

Only this is true obedience.
