By listening I can obey

1
By listening (echo)
I can obey (echo)
All of the words (echo)
My parents say. (echo)
  Obedience, love, joy, and peace,
Daily these must all increase
In the proper boys and girls
Who are the Lord’s.
2
A heart of love (echo)
Is one that’s kind, (echo)
Forgiving is (echo)
One of its signs. (echo)
3
I, child of joy (echo)
When friends are sad (echo)
With tearful words, (echo)
Will make them glad. (echo)
4
Peacemakers are (echo)
What we should be; (echo)
Speaking kind words (echo)
Making harmony. (echo)

Lovely! charming and encouraging, just like our precious Lord Jesus. By His grace I'm hoping to enjoy this with my grandchildren when they next come over.

"Dear Lord, bring many other little ones to hear this song and lead them to know what it is to be 'proper'. Furthermore, what it means to have such a friend in Jesus! Praise You dear Lord for being such a friend to us".

We are enjoying this children's song in our childrens meeting in a barrio. It is a reminder to us not only to the children that we need an ear to hear so we can obey, a heart that is simple and forgiving. May the Lord gain more children for His economy.

I really like this music, but it would be solo much better if there were singers with the music, I really like the children's music, I happen to enjoy the peppy, up beat. As well of course the old time gospel.
