November Scripture Song: Helaman 5:12

Hi everyone!  I'm excited to share the sheet music with you for the November scripture song.  This scripture is super powerful.  When we focus on Christ and go to Him for our strength, we can withstand the storms that the devil sends our way.  The scripture promises that if our foundation is built on Christ we CAN NOT FALL!  That's a pretty amazing promise. 

I look forward to making these scripture songs available to you in a spiral bound book in the next several months.  May you all be uplifted by the power of this music and these scriptures in your homes!  Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families.

October Scripture Song

The October Scripture Song is here.  This one was extra fun because during General Conference the spirit gave me a little nudge so I knew that we needed a scripture song for this verse!  We have actually had part of this verse in our unofficial, seldom recited family mission statement for a couple of years and it's about time we memorize the whole verse!  While this verse was first given about a temple, it is a model for what we want our home to be. 

What are your goals to make your home more of a safe haven from the world?  Are there ways that the adversaries influence is leaking into your home?  Would it be worth the sacrifice (and possible initial resistance from children or even your own natural man) if it would make your home feel like more of a place of spiritual renewal? 

Here are some ideas of ways you could improve the spirit of your home.  Trust me, these are areas that can always be improved upon and that WE always have to revisit.

  • adults media choices
  • children's media choices            (including commercial content that comes up during either)
  • adult and children's music choices
Are these uplifting?  Do they help me become better?  Am I rationalizing something that is lowering my vibration and my ability to feel the spirit?

  • family scripture study
  • family prayer
  • and all of the things listed in this scripture song/verse
I promise that every sacrifice you make, and every step you take closer to God, he will take leaps toward you.  He's just waiting for you to be ready for more blessings that He has in store when you're ready!

September Scripture Song

September's scripture song is short and sweet and feels like a camp song.  We taught it to our backyard visitors a few days ago and took a video to share with you.  We sing through it lots of times so that you and your kids can learn it easily!  This song should be catchy enough to help you apply the counsel it contains because it will get stuck in your head and will be easy to pull back up in your memory any time you want or need it.

One of my favorite things about General Conference this time around has been hearing several scripture songs quoted and my kids lighting up because they know them!

August Scripture Song for Kids

Here is a simple song to teach your family about the gifts of the spirit found in Galations 5:22-23.  It's short and sweet.  I hope it blesses your family.  I'm considering putting together a little book next year with all of these scripture songs with lessons for introducing them.  If there is interest that would be motivating to know. :)  Bless you guys!  Thanks for sharing in these songs with my kiddos and I.

Sheet Music For "Would I Give Everything"

I am so excited, humbled, and grateful to share this song with you all.  This is one of the most moving songs I've been inspired to write and it was a complicated one to get the sheet music for.  I intended to get this song to you at the beginning of July, and here it is the 17th.  The counting on the melody is not the most straight forward thing ever, and even still it's not perfect, so I advise listening to the recording HERE to get a feel for the song when you are learning it.

I wrote this song a few years ago when my husband and I had the opportunity to be a ma and pa on trek with our ward.  Click HERE to see my blog post about trek.  It was so, so moving and I'm grateful that I took time to blog about at least a tiny portion of the experience when it was fresh in my spirit.

I hope this song moves and inspires you all and that you enjoy singing and playing it.  I would love to hear if you play it, and if you sing it in your home, or for anyone else.

P.S. This may or may not replace the July scripture song for kids, as it was A LOT of work.  I'll see what I can do.

June Scripture Song For Kids

I broke into D&C for a scripture song this month.  It was just the thing to do.  This is a great scripture.  The world tells kids (and adults) that Sunday is the day for worship, that school, work, and play are separate from church.  This is a good scripture to reinforce that we serve the Lord and think about the Lord ALL the time and we serve Him with all our heart, might, mind, and strength.  ALL of it!  That's not a part time thing.  Do ye have desires to serve God?
