The beauty of this song is the truth that there is no need for sacrifice, and we now have the ability to obey. God has made a new covenant with us. He did what we couldn’t and then made it possible for us to live in obedience. We need to love Jesus for who He is and want He has done. He doesn’t need us, but He does want us. Lord, I want to be Yours every day. I want to be satisfied with what You give me. I don’t want my flesh to be fed. My spirit longs for Your presence, Thank You.
Love, Don
To obey is better than sacrifice,
I don’t need your money, I want your life.
And I hear you say that I’m coming back soon,
But you act like I’ll never return.
Well you speak of grace and my love so sweet,
How you thrive on milk, but reject my meat,
And I can’t help weeping of how it will be,
If you keep on ignoring my words.
Well you pray to prosper and succeed,
But your flesh is something I just can’t feed.
To obey is better than sacrifice.
I want more than Sunday and Wednesday nights,
Cause if you can’t come to me every day,
Then don’t bother coming at all.
Lah, lah,lah….
To obey is better than sacrifice.
I want hearts of fire, not your prayers of ice.
And I’m coming quickly, to give back to you,
According to what you have done,
According to what you have done,
According to what you have done.
