1. When my mother calls me,
Quickly I'll obey.
I want to do just what is best
Each and ev'ry day.
2. When my father calls me,
Quickly I'll obey.
I want to do just what is best
Each and ev'ry day.
3. Heav'nly Father loves me,
Blesses me each day.
I want to do just what is best
Each and ev'ry day.
Quickly I'll obey.
Quickly I'll obey. (etc.)
