NO PLACE
No place is safer, no place can be as sweet
As in God’s holy temple where friends may meet,
No place seems as sacred or so like heaven above,
No place anywhere is so filled with God’s love.
As I enter through the door, there I just want to stay,
Not return to the outside world and the earthly way,
But bask in the warmth of heaven that is there,
Knowing that I am a child of God and a rightful heir.
To me our lovely temple is a home away from home,
The place I want to stay or never very far to roam,
You feel sweet comfort and great protection around,
Such a special place where purity is always found.
We are so blest to have a temple that is close by,
Do nor let it be empty and cause sad spirits to sigh,
Attend the temple as often as you possibly can,
Learn well of our Heavenly Father’s eternal plan.
Know how to pass the angels at heaven’s gate,
Do not be disobedient, or leave going there too late,
Go and seek and learn of the gifts in the temple given,
Then be prepared everyday to be called up to heaven.
