Today in Sacrament meeting one of the members of the Bishopric sang a song. The song was very heartfelt and brought tears to my eyes. The song is about the temple in the 3rd verse it talks about a family being sealed together. This brought it more to my attention about how important the temple is and being sealed to your family. It made me realize that being sealed to my husband is something very important to me and something i hope to have soon.
How Many Hearts Have Been Turned?
Words by John V. Pearson / Music by Janice Kapp Perry
We serve in the house of the Lord
Our Savior's pure love fills this place
Where one by one men are redeemed
That all may be saved by His grace
How wond'rous the host gathered here
Where angels walk daily with men
With one heart and purpose we work
Returning God's children to Him
Chorus
How many hearts have been turned?
How many souls have been saved?
How great the blessings
And joy we have shared
With those we are serving today
A grandmother waits at the veil
Her granddaughter carries her name
She enters when love brings her in
They weep for their joy is the same
Whole families come to the font
Where others are washed for their sins
They're free now, their chains disappear
They're servants of Christ once again
Repeat Chorus
A man and a woman join hands
And kneel at the altar of God
By priesthood and covenant made
Their two lives continue as one
A little girl dressed all in white
Is brought where her parents await
They place her small hand on their own
They're sealed and the circle's complete
Repeat Chorus
