Follow the laws of the Lord your God
In the land you will possess
So that your descendants fear the Lord
And with abundant life, you're blessed
Listen, and be careful to obey
So it will go well with you,
That you may prosper in the land
That the Lord God promised you
Love the Lord your God, alone
With all of your heart, soul and strength
Keep His commands upon your hearts
Discuss them at great length
When you are filled with good things
And satisfied in the flourishing land,
Do not forget the Lord, who delivered you
And all that has come from His hand
Serve the Lord with reverence
For He is in your midst
A jealous God who can destroy you;
Do not put the Lord to the test
Follow God's decrees
And do what is good and right
And you will dwell in peace
Within our gracious Lord's sight
