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 La, la, la 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 According to what you have done According to what you have done
