I Thank Thee O God for a Prophet

I hope all of you got to listen or watch some of General Conference. Once again it has strengthened my testimony of Heavenly Father (God) and the prophets and apostles He has called to lead and guide us today. I testify that there is a God and that He loves all of Children which is why He has reached out in love by restoring the same church his son, Jesus Christ, set up when he was on the earth and calling another prophet to receive direction for you and I. I leave you the words to Hymn #19 "We Thank Thee O God for a Prophet". They have been on my mind a lot the last couple days with a few changes.

I thank thee, O God, for a prophet
To guide me in these latter days.
I thank thee for sending the gospel
To lighten my mind with its rays.
I thank thee for every blessing
Bestowed by thy bounteous hand.
I feel it a pleasure to serve thee
And love to obey thy command.

When dark clouds of trouble hang o’er me
And threaten my peace to destroy,
There is hope smiling brightly before me,
And I know that deliv’rance is nigh.
I doubt not the Lord nor his goodness.
I’ve proved him in days that are past.
The wicked who fight against Zion
Will surely be smitten at last.

 I’ll sing of his goodness and mercy.
I’ll praise him by day and by night,
Rejoice in his glorious gospel,
And bask in its life-giving light.
Thus on to eternal perfection
The honest and faithful will go,
While they who reject this glad message
Shall never such happiness know.

This is my testimony. I Thank Thee O God for loving us enough to give us a Prophet on the earth today!!
