Obedience to Law Is Liberty


Today we're in a war
Of words, thoughts and deeds
Remember who we are
And plant gospel seeds

May we ever be a light
High upon a moral hill
Showing the way that is bright
Doing our Father's will

Blessings always come
Through our obedience
Then, liberty is won
And we are freed from sin, hence

Obedience to Law Is Liberty
"Today we find ourselves in another war. This is not a war of armaments. It is a war of thoughts, words, and deeds. It is a war with sin, and more than ever we need to be reminded of the commandments."
May we ever be a light on the hill, an example in keeping the commandments, which have never changed and will never change. Just as this small book encouraged LDS servicemen to stand morally firm in times of war, may we, in this latter-day war, be a beacon to all the earth and particularly to God’s children who are seeking the Lord’s blessings. Of this I testify in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
