COULDN'T WAIT

I couldn't wait 'til Sunday to give you something else to think about. This was the closing hymn at our Stake conference last Sunday. It has been on my mind constantly since then. I guess I had better share it.

LORD, I WOULD FOLLOW THEE
Susan Evans McCloud
LDS Hymns, # 220
Savior, may I learn to love thee, Walk the path that thou hast shown,
Pause to help and lift another, Finding strength beyond my own.
Savior, may I learn to love thee -- Lord, I would follow thee.
Who am I to judge another When I walk imperfectly?
In the quiet heart is hidden Sorrow that the eye can't see.
Who am I to judge another? -- Lord, I would follow thee.
I would be my brother's keeper; I would learn the healer's art.
To the wounded and the weary I would show a gentle heart.
I would be my brother's keeper -- Lord, I would follow thee.
Savior, may I love my brother As I know thou lovest me,
Find in thee my strength, my beacon, For thy servant I would be.
Savior, may I love my brother -- Lord, I would follow thee>
