Live by Faith and Not by Fear

All over the world, there are good Latter- Day Saints.
As truths are unfurled, faith abounds unrestrained.
Though there are drought conditions we find living waters.
That our homes can be safe midst precarious matters.

The gospel teaches us how to increase our faith.
If we but listen, the Prophet shows us the way.
When we've the Spirit, we serve and lengthen our stride.
From temple's beacon, we're bright, no longer to hide.

When we feel weighed down, we can increase faith and prayer.
Finding emphasized love, to reflect and feel aware.
When we reach hard crossroads, we'll follow Jesus and not fear.
For He shares our burdens and makes them easier to bear.


Live by faith
Not by fear
Lift your face
God is near
