School is all about you.
And what you want to prove.
What do you need to do
To achieve and improve?

Believe in Home Again
Empty, you keep coming back.
For there's a hole in your soul.
Satan's been on the attack
And, home is where you're whole
You lost a piece of your soul
When you left our family
What you need to become whole
Is to love us, happily
Take hold of the memories
All the joy you felt back when
There was less stress and more ease
Come, believe in home again
For there's a hole in your soul.

My Kingdom is Not of This World
His kingdom is not here
But of another
May this bring to you cheer
As He is our brother

Receive His cleansing care
I feel His acceptance
My burdens are made light
I walk with confidence
On a path now made bright
Claim the blessings of Your Covenants

Float on a Sea of Faith
Float upon a sea of faith
With Christ's light before your face
He brightens the heart and mind
As we leave our sins behind
Then let us float upon the sea
With ears to hear and eyes to see
Where despite the surging tides
We find safety on all sides
I found a great gospel doctrine resource.

Due to something you did
Have faith that in the end
God will help you repent
Pray for deliverance

Ask for a second chance

Lamentation
Turning from the worship
Elder Quentin L. Cook
Lamentations of Jeremiah: Beware of Bondage
Ensign, November 2013
Of the true and living God
I sought to be worldly
And bondage is what I got
I didn't see it coming
Being so consumed with pride
Satan is that cunning
That he knows my weaker side
In this lowly circumstance
I prayed for repentance
To rise up with confidence
Unto a second chance
I tell you, now, avoid sin
And all that does distract
For bondage is a burden
And juggling is an act
Elder Quentin L. Cook
Lamentations of Jeremiah: Beware of Bondage
Ensign, November 2013
Turning from the worship of the true and living God and worshipping false gods like wealth and fame and engaging in immoral and unrighteous conduct result in bondage in all its insidious manifestations. These include spiritual, physical, and intellectual bondage and sometimes bring destruction. Jeremiah and Lehi also taught that those who are righteous must help the Lord establish His Church and kingdom and gather scattered Israel.8
A Holy Work to Do
The Lord's meek and righteous
Have a holy work to do
To show that life brightens
As we serve Him all anew
Love—the Essence of the Gospel
To love God with all my heart
With all of my soul and my mind
Is to be kind and impart
His love unto all that I find
The Strength to Endure
Of all the challenges we must face
I think the worst is the trial of faith
For then, to endure, there is no light
Or assurance you're doing what's right

Stretch Beyond Historical Records
Stretch beyond historical facts
To the days' sentiments were expressed.
Look for poetry shared in the past
That shows how hearts and minds were impressed.
As from angst, poetry imparts
The words that flow from our needs.
Let us learn to reach within our hearts
For truth and see where this leads.

Let us learn to reach within our hearts
For truth and see where this leads.
“If one is willing to stretch beyond the traditional sources of autobiography, journals, other archival records, and history books, one may find that poetry, including song lyrics, can be a powerful historical ally,” said Sister Chapman, a historian at the library.https://www.lds.org/church/news/poetry-is-a-powerful-historical-ally-church-historian-says-?lang=eng
“It gives insight into the past in dynamic ways and can help us piece together what it meant to live in eras gone by.”
In her lecture, she explored poetry in four areas: as a story of relationships, a biographical record, a medium of conviction, and a tool to express sentiment.
To This End Was I Born
Come partake of the living bread
Now torn from the body of Jesus Christ
His flesh will raise us from the dead
Unto the Father for eternal life
Eat the flesh of the Son of Man
And drink His blood that His life be in you
Then, be assured- He says He can
That each of us will dwell within Him too
As sin's scapegoat, He was bound and tried
No requirement was left undone
It was for us that He bled and died
That together we might be one

Spiritual Whirlwinds
Don't let the whirlwinds of life
Drag you down to the gulfs of woe
Stand upon the rock of Christ
And hold to gospel truths we know
Elder Neil L. Andersen
Spiritual Whirlwinds
A Firmly Set Anchor
The gospel's firm anchor
Steadies us in a storm
That we not drift off course
When life's gales blast full force
Mooring in Ignorance
While mooring at your destination
Let your sea anchor firmly set
Though there's no storm at this location
Undercurrents move, don't forget!
A Firmly Set Anchor
Elder Dieter F. Uctdorf
Ensign, April 2014
A Firmly Set Anchor
Adversity can come as a great storm to blow us off course and threaten to cast us against the rocks. But sometimes we are also in danger when everything appears to be safe—the winds soft and the waters smooth. In fact, we can be in the greatest danger when we are drifting and movement is so slight that we scarcely notice it.
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Gales
Gale is defined as: wind of considerable strength; a state of current or passing emotions; a gentle breeze.

Thou art my Savior, adored
And without thee, I would break
Thou art my breath, thou art my light

Through thee I learn to choose the right
And with thee I long to be
Thou art my hope, my perfect friend
It is through thee that I pray
For it is thy spirit in the end
That leads my path each day
Here I offer my heart yet meek
Warmly, filled with gratitude
I know I fall short as I am weak
Yet, I feel safe and rescued

And strive to obey

Casual to Get By
Casually skimming
The Word of God
Is just like skipping
In a brain fog
Opportunities
Then, are just missed
Blessings you would see
Go unnoticed
Casually talking
To God in prayer
Is like sleep walking
Without a care
Lest you might get hurt
Rise to your call
Wake up, be alert,
With God stand tall
