"The Prophet Is Our Watchman"

Children's/Primary Song

 

Lyrics by Kelly Coleman

Music by Kelly Coleman & Mindy Meyers

Key of D (2 Sharps)

 

The prophet is our watchman, called from God above

To care for all His children, teach them of His love

 When he speaks, the spirit testifies to me

I know that his words are true and it's plain to see

 

God has sent us watchmen to guide His children home

I'll listen to their counsel, heed the path they've shone

If I live the gospel each and ev'ry day,

trusting in His watchmen, I'll never lose my way

 

The prophets and apostles teach us to beware

Warning us of danger from the tempter's snare

 Preaching of repentance, showing us the way

How to always choose the right, and I will obey!

 

God has sent us watchmen to guide His children home

I'll listen to their counsel, heed the path they've shone

 If I live the gospel each and ev'ry day,

trusting in His watchmen, I'll never lose my way

 

Yes, I will live the gospel each and ev'ry day

Trusting in His watchmen I'll never lose my way
