Obey your father and mother
O children – this is right
And show to your parents honor
As pleasing in God’s sight
Fathers – do not provoke to wrath
Give godly discipline
Raise your children to walk God’s path
With Scripture’s instruction

(To the tune of “We Sing the Greatness of Our God”)

Consider Christ our Savior Head
He leads us for our good
We follow Him raised from the dead
Obey Him as we should

Consider Jesus and His love
His life for us He gave
To cleanse and present us above
The Bride He came to save

He loves and feeds and nourishes
In Him we’re satisfied
He cares for us and cherishes
Now in His love abide

Consider Christ – with Him we’re one
To Him we do belong
In all of life – cling to the Son
And turn from all that’s wrong

(To the tune of “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)

Christ loves His church – His life he gave
He died upon the tree
To cleanse us from our sin – to save
And present us holy
The husband now should love his wife
Love sacrificially
And for her good now give his life
Her best seeking daily

His wife the husband nourishes
And for her needs provides
He cares for her and cherishes
His wife close by his side
With Christ his model to follow
And his sins washed away
He strives our Lord’s great love to show
With Christ’s power each day

In ev’ry marriage there is sin
Selfish and hideous
But Christ can take what is broken
And make it glorious
He calls us to humility
Each husband and each wife
Deny ourselves for His glory
And become more like Christ

(To the tune of “We Sing the Greatness of Our God”)

 

Be filled with the Spirit and Word
Be under God’s control
Sing to each other and the Lord
With all your heart and soul
Give thanks to God now and always
To each other submit
Follow his leading and his ways
Be filled with the Spirit

(To the tune of “We Sing the Greatness of Our God”)

 

God calls us to walk carefully
With wisdom fear the Lord
Walk in His strength and love daily
And follow His true Word
Make good use of the time at hand
Do what He made us for
The will of our God understand
Jesus always adore

 (To the tune of “We Sing the Greatness of Our God”)

Awake, arise now from the dead, And Christ will shine on you
No longer dark – but light instead, You have been made brand new
Do what is good and right and true, And bear the fruit of light
Discern what pleases God not you, Shun the unfruitful night

And as you radiate the light, A sharp contrast will show
Between the deeds of darkest night, And your good works that flow
Now some will seek to hide from sight, Their hatred for us grow
While some become children of light, Our Savior come to know

 (To the tune of “We Sing the Greatness of Our God”)

I once was living in the dark
Far from my God above
But then the Father came to mark
Me as His child of love

Now in his light and love I walk
Turn from sexual sin
And coveting and all foul talk
For God my heart did win

No more of what should not be named
Within God’s family
I am God’s child, Christ took my blame
That with Him I might be

 (To the tune of “Amazing Grace”)

We put off our old sinful way
We put on what is right
Renew our minds from day to day
Walk with Him in the light

We must put off all bitterness
All wrath and all anger
Ev-er-y form of all malice
All clamor and slander

And in their place put on kindness
With hearts of tenderness
Offer each other forgiveness
As our God forgives us

 (To the tune of “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)

We put off our old sinful way
We put on what is right
Renew our minds from day to day
Walk with Him in the light

O God may we put off stealing
And work that we might give
Speak grace-filled words that bring healing
A giving life now live

Beware of grieving God’s Spirit
In what we do or say
And live a giving life that’s fit
For that redemptive day

And when we fail – we will repent
Our sin we will confess
Look to our Savior who was sent
To grant us forgiveness
