I Love This Song

http://missfath.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/happy-family.jpg
I've had this song rolling around in my head for several days now. It's one of the newer primary songs, so some of you might not have heard it yet. The music that goes along with the words is beautiful--and even better when the kids are singing it! I just thought I'd post the lyrics because they're great!

Our Father has a family. It’s me!
It’s you, all others too: we are His children.
He sent each one of us to earth, through birth,
To live and learn here in families.
God gave us families to help us become what He wants us to be—
This is how He shares His love, for the family is of God.

A father’s place is to preside, provide,
To love and teach the gospel to his children.
A father leads in fam’ly prayer to share
Their love for Father in Heaven.

God gave us families to help us become what He wants us to be—
This is how He shares His love, for the family is of God.

A mother’s purpose is to care, prepare,
To nurture and to strengthen all her children.
She teaches children to obey, to pray,
To love and serve in the family.

God gave us families to help us become what He wants us to be—
This is how He shares His love, for the family is of God.

I’ll love and serve my family and be
A good example to each family member.
And when I am a mom or dad, so glad,
I’ll help my family remember:

God gave us families to help us become what He wants us to be—
This is how He shares His love, for the family is of God.
