Hymn 880  

SUBJECT: SPIRITUAL WARFARE—BY OBEDIENCE
METER: 8.7.8.7.D.
AUTHOR: +(Adapted from M. E. Barber)
COMPOSER: William B. Bradbury

1To the foe my word is always, “No,”
  To the Father it is “Yes,”
 That His plan and all His counsel
  Be accomplished with success;
 When Thine orders I’m obeying,
  Grant me, Lord, authority
 To fulfill Thy plan eternal
  Thru the Spirit’s power in me.
2To the foe my word is always, “No,”
  To the Father it is, “Yes”;
 ’Tis my attitude eternal;
  May the Lord protect and bless,
 Lest while walking in obedience
  Satan undermine the way;
 When I’m list’ning to Thine orders,
  Grant me mercy, Lord, I pray.
3To the foe my word is always, “No,”
  To the Father it is, “Yes”;
 I completely would obey Him,
  Though deep suff’ring may oppress.
 If the Lord will save and keep me,
  As I forward press with Him,
 Then no trials shall prevent me,
  Nor will opposition grim.
