True to the Faith
This was written for the youth in my stake. Every stake in Utah was asked to put on some sort of a program commemorating the life of Joseph Smith, using the youth for the program. Each ward did a ward level program and the stake chose different parts of each ward program to create a stake program. The stake asked me to write a song for the youth of our stake to sing and this is the song I wrote. True to the Faith
Joseph knelt in prayer, I can see him there
Every time I read his words.
Joseph teaches me to live righteously
And through his faith he is heard.
Chorus
I feel the spirit of a prophet.
I feel the power of his prayer.
I feel the truth of testimony
That Joseph chose to bear.
I look to Joseph as an example
Of what to do and how to be.
We look to Christ and live true to the faith,
The prophet and me.
Joseph lived his life knowing joy and strife
He had faith to follow truth.
And in latter days faithful voices raise
In the strength of the youth.
