The 10 Commandment Song: Exodus 20:1-12

Words by God. Music, given to Toni Rypkema by God

 

I AM, I AM, I AM the LORD your God.

I AM, I AM, I AM the LORD your God.

 

You shall not have any gods before Me.

You shall not have any gods before Me,

I AM, I AM, I AM the LORD your God.

 

You shall not make for yourself an idol, you shall not bow down and worship them.

I AM, I AM, I AM the LORD your God.

 

You shall not misuse the name of God.

You shall not misuse the name of the Lord, the LORD your God.

I AM, I AM, I AM the LORD your God.

 

Remember the Sabaath day by keeping it holy

Six days the Lord made heaven and earth but rested on the 7th day.

I AM, I AM, I AM the LORD your God.

 

Honor your father and mother so you live long in the land.

Honor your father and mother, there’s a promise that it may go well with you.

I AM, I AM, I AM the LORD your God.

 

You shall not murder.

You shall not commit adultery.

You shall not steal.

You shall not give false testimony.

You shall not covet your neighbor’s house, or wife, or anything.

I AM, I AM, I AM the LORD your God. 2X, end.

God knew that his children would not be able to keep His law. He sent a Rescuer. Jesus.

Jesus is the only keeper of the 10. God’s law is not to make us run from Him, but to come to the cross in complete brokenness to acknowledge He paid the punishment we deserve in full.

“For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be save through Him.” John 3:17.

Enjoy learning the 10 Commandments of God through song.
