SISTERS IN THE TEMPLE

Peaceful and so serene seem the sisters clothed in white,
Each one shining with a radiance clear and bright,
Smiling eyes, a gentle touch, hearts that know and feel,
Spreading the light of the gospel, they know God is real.

Walking in silence through the temple smoothly they go,
Nothing seems hurried, every gentle movement does flow,
No voices raised in anger, no cruel words ever come
From mouths that speak of love, as Jesus would have done.

Love glows around them as they serve day by day,
Showing hoe to live the gospel the real and proper way.
“Let your light so shine,” the Saviour told us all to do,
Come visit the temple and see that light shine through.

No one knows the joy that comes from serving here within,
Far away from the hectic life and the traffics noisy din,
Till you come and serve and then feel the blessing flow,
That makes the sisters radiate everywhere they go.
