Song Lyrics: The Ten Commandments
Song Lyrics: The Ten Commandments
1. I am the Lord and thou shall serve
no other god but Me.
Religion true thou shall observe,
faith, hope and charity.
All these that Thou command.
O Lord we cheerfully obey
And look to heaven for our reward
through all eternity
2. Thou shall not take
God’s name in vain,
nor Swear unlawfully
ngs holy thou shall not profane
nor curse irreverently
3. Remember that thou sanctify
the holy Sabbath day.
Work not without necessity
Hear holy Mass and pray
4. Thy parents honour, Serve and love
and cheerfully obey.
And servant must obedient prove,
when without sin they may’
5. Thou shalt not kill
nor vengeance take,
nor hate thy enemy.
Forgive and love for Jesus’ sake
all that have injured thee.
6. Do not commit adultery
in thoughts, words and deeds.
Beware of evil company
and read not dangerous books.
7. Thou shall not keep nor steal
nor waste nor cheat in any way.
Destruction done thou must repair
as well as calumny.
8. Thou shan’t covet
thy neighbour’s wife,
nor look with lustful eyes.
Thou shan’t covet
Thy neighbour’s goods
nor eye them enviously.
