“When I go, I want to have the privilege of meeting them with the consciousness that I have followed their example,
that I have carried out the mission in which they were engaged, as they would have it carried out;
​that I have been as faithful in the discharge of duty committed to me."

victory through jesus christ

“Every man born into the world will die. It matters not who he is, nor where he is, whether his birth be among the rich and the noble, or among the lowly and poor in the world, his days are numbered with the Lord, and in due time he will reach the end. We should think of this. Not that we should go about with heavy hearts or with downcast countenances; not at all. I rejoice that I am born to live, to die, and to live again. I thank God for this intelligence. It gives me joy and peace that the world cannot give, neither can the world take it away. God has revealed this to me, in the gospel of Jesus Christ. I know it to be true. Therefore, I have nothing to be sad over, nothing to make me sorrowful.​

it's not ABOUT you

You look into your father’s eyes when he
takes his hands off your head
He whispers that he’s proud of you
and he knows you’ll do your best
you say you wonder if you can do it
that’s when he says
Chorus:
It’s not about you
It’s not about you
It’s for the people who are blessed by what you do
It’s not about you
Everybody’s gathered ‘round you
Eyes all aglow
You start to read that piece of paper
To see where you’ll go
And you wonder if you’re ready
But you already know​

“On the contrary, it is cause for joy unspeakable, and for pure happiness. I cannot express the joy I feel at the thought of meeting my father, and my precious mother, who gave me birth in the midst of persecution and poverty, who bore me in her arms and was patient, forbearing, tender and true during all my helpless moments in the world. The thought of meeting her, who can express the joy? The thought of meeting my children who have preceded me beyond the veil, and of meeting my kindred and my friends, what happiness it affords! For I know that I shall meet them there. God has shown me that this is true. He has made it clear to me, in answer to my prayer and devotion, as he has made it clear to the understanding of all men who have sought diligently to know him.”​

It’s for your children and the world they’re coming to
It’s for the people who are blessed by what you do
You're a better person because of what you’ve been through
