I Will Obey Every Law,

I Pressed My Father's Hand And Told Him I Would Protect His Grave With My Life. My Father Smiled And Passed Away To The Spirit Land.

Our Fathers Gave Us Many Laws Which They Had Learned From Their Fathers. These Laws Were Good.

We Do Not Want Churches Because They Will Teach Us To Quarrel About God. We Do Not Want To Learn That. We May Quarrel With Men Sometimes About Things On This Earth, But We Never Quarrel About The Great Spirit. We Do Not Want To Learn That.

I Believe Much Trouble Would Be Saved If We Opened Our Hearts More.
