In the Quiet Hour
my impressions from regional conference and my limited notetaking:
In the quiet hour
I look for inner strength
That when I face affliction,
I might find peace at length
When I put my trust in God
And His knowledge that is sure
Hope is born for comfort
That I might more endure
Then in my times of doubt
Anguish holds no power
For I know that God's about
To guide me in that hour
Am I really living as I should?
Do I let small events guide me?
Am I doing as the Savior would?
Am I repenting unto what I can be?
I know that I am free to act
And that good and evil abounds
Thus, I give care to what I attract
So on the Lord's side I am found
Shall I justify a lifestyle
That yields no peace or inner joy?
Or look for doctrinal loopholes while
I chase after what the world enjoys?
No, I will look unto all that's great
And let Jesus be at the helm
I will hearken Him and choose the holy life
And look forward to the celestial realm
Elder Ballard February 22, 2009
