My testimony is dear to
me,
I’ve shared it with a
few.
Though words won’t do
it justice,
this poem will have to
do.
I know my Father in
Heaven.
I speak with Him each
day.
He knows my hopes and
dreams,
because He listens when I
pray.
I know my Lord and
Savior,
He’s been a true
example,
of how my life should be.
I believe in the
atonement.
Of this I can’t be
swayed.
I’ve used it often in
my life.
Thanks to Him my dept is
paid.
I am grateful for the
scriptures.
they were restored to me
and you.
I sustain our living
Prophet.
His words will keep me
always,
planted in the gospel
sod.
I’m grateful for my
family.
Some day we WILL be
sealed,
I know this Church is
true.
By searching through a
book,
that I had upon my shelf.
I had read the book
before.
And I wavered in the
past.
But through my trial of
faith,
I found the truth at
last.
Though I struggle all the
time,
I know He’s here with
me.
to guide me in my
journey.
Telling me which way to
go.
I’ll strive to share
His word,
with my neighbor and my
friend.
Knowing that I will be
thanked,
when this life comes to
an end.
So I leave this
testimony,
with hope that deep
within,
you felt the spirit
burning.
Living life inside a
hall,
With doors lined up along
each wall.
Each door shut tight.
Their paths unknown,
Afraid of failure, I wait
here alone.
I pray for help. Please
make my choice,
And in my heart I hear
His voice.
Pick any door, each on is
right,
Just keep with you, my
guiding light.
I knock on each then pray
once more,
Rise to my feet. There's
just one door.
Reach out my hand and use
His key,
I'll show you my child,
there's so much to see.
A leap of faith and then
I step in.
It's all up to me. Just
let life begin.
Even things I can no see.
To remember just what's
good,
And repent of all the
rest.
Though a hole inside my
heart.
He's with me all the way,
And he's borne the
greater part.
And I know my view's
still small.
I pray for strength to
shine,
To journey through this
life,
And be with those I love.
So we can plan our
future,
As eternal souls above.
