SONG NO. 59
JEHOVAH'S COMMANDMENTS WE SHOULD CAREFULLY KEEP
DEUTERONOMY- 8 : 1-3 Jehovah commanded the Israelites to carry out His regulations
That with Jehovah the Israelites can make better relations
Which is a protection for them among the nations
Since the Israelites according to their deeds they will reap
So every commandment that Jehovah commends us we should be careful to keep
Then in our present lives and in our future we and our generations no need to weep
The Israelites because of their rebellious behaviour for themselves just caused pain
As when the Israelites rebelled from Jehovah’s commandments again and again
Then it is hard for them Jehovah’s blessing to gain
We watch out how we walk in Jehovah’s way since according to our deeds we will reap
So every commandment that Jehovah commends us we should be careful to keep
Then in our present lives and in our future we and our generations no need to weep
To give respect to Jehovah and to His spiritual temple
Biblical events are written for a warning for us as an example
That from Jehovah’s righteousness we not rebel and live our lives according to Jehovah’s principle
Are we ready for Jehovah’s righteous day and not in spiritual sleep
So every commandment that Jehovah commends us we should be careful to keep
Then in our present lives and in our future we and our generations no need to weep
To recognise the importance of obeying Jehovah the Israelites were not able
Because of the Israelites rebellious behaviour,Jehovah rebuked them and made them humble
That who ever will hear about them never in their lives will stumble
Like the Israel forty years like creeper in the wilderness we do not want to creep
So every commandment that Jehovah commends us,we should be careful to keep
Then in our present lives and in our future we and our generations no need to weep
Jehovah humbled the Israelites through hunger and lack of facilities that Jehovah can easily give
That we know not just with bread man will live but through obeying Jehovah human can live
The Israelites must obey Jehovah that they can survive
In Jehovah’s dealing for us have a lesson very deep
So every commandment that Jehovah commends us we should be careful to keep
Then in our present lives and in our future we and our generations no need to weep
If we obey Jehovah’s commandments with our every kind of strive
In perfect earthly paradise we can have hope for everlasting life
According to Jehovah’s righteousness we must our lives live
Since we are ready for Jehovah’s day, on His day’s arrival we can joyfully leap
So every commandment that Jehovah commends us we should be careful to keep
Then in our present lives and in our future we and our generations no need to weep
