He Sent His Son

How could the Father tell the world of love and tenderness?

He sent his Son, a newborn babe, with peace and holiness.

How could the Father show the world the pathway we should go?

He sent his Son to walk with men on earth, that we may know.

How could the Father tell the world of sacrifice, of death?

He sent his Son to die for us and rise with living breath.

What does the Father ask of us? What do the scriptures say?

Have faith, have hope, live like his Son, help others on their way.

What does he ask? Live like his Son.

The Holy Ghost

When Christ was on the earth,

He promised he would send

The Holy Ghost to comfort us,

Our true, eternal friend.

The Holy Spirit whispers

With a still small voice.

He testifies of God and Christ

And makes our hearts rejoice.

The Iron Rod

1. To Nephi, seer of olden time,
   A vision came from God,
   Wherein the holy word sublime
   Was shown an iron rod.
2. (Chorus)
   Hold to the rod, the iron rod;
   'Tis strong, and bright, and true.
   The iron rod is the word of God;
   'Twill safely guide us through.
3. 2. While on our journey here below,
   Beneath temptation's pow'r,
   Through mists of darkness we must go,
   In peril ev'ry hour.
4. 3. And when temptation's pow'r is nigh,
   Our pathway clouded o'er,
   Upon the rod we can rely,
   And heaven's aid implore.
5. 4. And, hand o'er hand, the rod along,
   Through each succeeding day,
   With earnest prayer and hopeful song,
   We'll still pursue our way.
6. 5. Afar we see the golden rest
   To which the rod will guide,
   Where, with the angels bright and blest,
   Forever we'll abide.

   I’ll prepare most carefully,
   So I can marry in God’s temple for eternity.
4. Fam’lies can be together forever

Come Follow Me

1. "Come, follow me," the Savior said.
   Then let us in his footsteps tread,
   For thus alone can we be one
   With God's own loved, begotten Son.
2. 2. "Come, follow me," a simple phrase,
   Yet truth's sublime, effulgent rays
   Are in these simple words combined
   To urge, inspire the human mind.
3. 3. Is it enough alone to know
   That we must follow him below,
   While trav'ling thru this vale of tears?
   No, this extends to holier spheres.
4. 4. Not only shall we emulate
   His course while in this earthly state,
   But when we're freed from present cares,
   If with our Lord we would be heirs.
5. 5. We must the onward path pursue
   As wider fields expand to view,
   And follow him unceasingly,
   Whate'er our lot or sphere may be.
6. 6. For thrones, dominions, kingdoms, pow'rs,
   And glory great and bliss are ours,
   If we, throughout eternity,
   Obey his words, "Come, follow me."

Tell Me the Stories of Jesus

1. Tell me the stories of Jesus I love to hear,
   Things I would ask him to tell me if he were here.
   Scenes by the wayside, tales of the sea,
   Stories of Jesus, tell them to me.
2. 2. Oh, let me hear how the children stood round his knee.
   I shall imagine his blessings resting on me;
   Words full of kindness, deeds full of grace,
   All in the love-light of Jesus’ face.
3. 3. Tell me, in accents of wonder, how rolled the sea,
   Tossing the boat in a tempest on Galilee!
   And how the Master, ready and kind,
   Chided the billows and hushed the wind.

The Miracle

Jesus walked
Upon the water
He stilled the storm and calmed
The angry sea

With His hands
He healed the leper
He made the lame to walk
The blind to see

He fed a thousand people with a loaf or two of bread
And when the ruler's daughter died
He raised her form the dead

Jesus is a God of miracles
Nothing is at all impossible to Him
But I know this
Of all his miracles
The most incredible must be
The miracle that rescues me!

Jesus bled and died
To save me
A price that I could never pay alone
When he rose again he gave me
The greatest gift the world
Has ever known!

Yes I can be forgiven every time I repent
And someday He will lift me up
To lift with Him again

Jesus is a god of miracles
Nothing is at all impossible to Him
But I know this;
Of all his miracles the most incredible must be
The miracle that rescues me!

The miracle that rescues you and me!

1. Jesus wants me for a sunbeam,

   At home, at school, at play.

   A sunbeam, a sunbeam,
   Jesus wants me for a sunbeam.
   A sunbeam, a sunbeam,
   I'll be a sunbeam for him
   .

Book of Mormon Stories

Book of Mormon stories that my teacher tells to me

Are about the Lamanites in ancient history.

Long ago their fathers came from far across the sea,

Giv’n the land if they lived righteously.

2. Lamanites met others who were seeking liberty,

And the land soon welcomed all who wanted to be free.

Book of Mormon stories say that we must brothers be,

Giv’n the land if we live righteously.

3. Alma was rebellious, and he fought against the right.

Then one day an angel came to turn him to the light.

Struck before his brethren, Alma learned humility.

Then he taught in the land righteously.

4. Don’t forget Abinadi, who stood before the king.

All chained up from head to toe, the gospel he did bring.

If he would deny it, then the king would set him free.

He was true, and he died righteously.

5. Ammon was a missionary serving Lamanites,

Tending King Lamoni’s sheep for several days and nights.

Robbers came; he saved the sheep by fighting fearlessly.

He had learned he could live righteously.

6. Once two thousand sons of God were called to fight the foe.

Marching as an army into battle they did go.

They believed that Christ the Lord their guardian would be.

They had learned they should live righteously.

7. Samuel the Lamanite, high on the city wall,

Came to warn the people, and repentance was his call.

Arrows could not hit him, for a man of God was he,

And he taught in the land righteously.

8. (Slowly and reverently)

After Christ was crucified and died for you and me,

He came forth to teach the truth to all who would be free.

Hands were laid upon each child. He blessed them tenderly,

And they lived in the land righteously.
