To Obey Is Better Than Sacrifice

To Obey Is Better Than Sacrifice - Keith Green

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

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
