Lyrics
God gave a commission to Abraham
Leave the city, go to a different land
Ark builder, Noah, preached righteousness
To people who laughed and wouldn't accept it
Though it came from Jehovah
Our God, our King, our rightful ruler
chorus:
Exercise faith, Jesus said
Faith without works is dead
Belief won't show it
To grow it in your heart
Do what Jehovah asks
Jesus was sent to a people
Taught by God to proclaim the Messiah
Like Moses, he will lead us away
From an illegal rule set up in ancient days
It wasn't from Jehovah
Our God, our King, our rightful ruler
Bridge:
Exercise faith
Work to proclaim God's government
Exercise faith
Follow the one legal establishment
Belief won't show it
To grow it in your heart
Do what Jehovah asks
