These are the commands,
The laws and the rules;
That the Lord demands,
So do not be fools.
He wants me to teach,
So that you can learn;
And never to breach,
To finally burn.
So learn to obey,
At sea or on land;
Never try to stray,
Onto sinking sand.
As long as you live,
You must fear your God;
Remember to give,
Him honor and laud.
Obey all His laws,
And all His commands;
Making not more flaws,
Which dirties your hands.
Careful to obey,
The way things will go;
Follow Him each day,
So blessings will flow.
The flow will increase,
With milk and honey;
So let the greed cease,
Worship not money.
The Lord is your God,
And God is your Lord;
So honor and laud,
Stay in one accord.
Love with all your heart,
All your soul and might;
Never to depart,
Keeping in your sight.
These words that I give,
Teach to your child;
So they might too live,
And not run wild.
