Listen and Obey
A sweet sing-along worship song for toddlers that gently teaches little hearts to listen to mama and papa, and to do God's way with a happy 'yes' — because Jesus helps us all day through.

Bible verse · Little lesson
A verse to hide in your heart
“Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.”
Little lesson for little hearts
God doesn't just want our songs and our gifts — He wants our 'yes.' When we listen and obey, we are saying we trust Him. Jesus listened perfectly to the Father all the way to the cross, and now He gives His people new hearts that want to obey Him with joy.
