A sacred song for children. Written specifically for the children of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Text by Krista Mason Pace below.
I leave the water pure and clean,
My heart prepared to follow Him.
I take His name and promise to
Then strive to keep commandments true.
I am on the cov'nant path back home,
To live with God again.
I take the bread and water clear,
Remembering my Savior dear.
His Spirit promised as my guide
Through test and trial, he'll abide.
I am on the cov'nant path back home,
To live with God again.
Obedience and sacrifice,
my heart embraces more each day.
To live the gospel chaste and free
I consecrate my all to Thee.
I am on the cov'nant path back home,
To live with God again.
With hands now clasped and hearts as one
We kneel before our Heav'nly King
To be sealed by priesthood power divine;
Celestial glory shall be mine.
We are on the cov'nant path back home,
To live like God, with Him.
