Search Diligently, Pray Always

Lyrics

Words of wisdom wait for me, written for my day
Works of holy scripture like a lamp to light my way
Teachings of the prophets that testify of Christ
That speak of hope and endless joy and everlasting life

Chorus:
So I will search diligently, pray always
Believing in His word
And all things in heaven and earth
Will work together for my good

A loving Father waits for me to come to Him in prayer
He will give me strength to stand through all I must endure
He offers me His spirit and love that conquers fear
And when I seek His counsel I will find Him ever near

(Repeat Chorus)

Celestial glory waits for me, a promise, sure and bright
If I will walk uprightly with the Savior as my guide
He will walk beside me along this mortal path
And lead me home, an heir with Him to all the Father hath

    No one sing. Just the music

      I learned and played this song for my ward YW to sing as a Beehive when it was new and that was the yearly theme, and I gained a testimony of it then although I had plenty of years after as a teen to wonder about the structure and timing of the promise, and I had no idea what was coming in the next twenty years that would not seem like God was actually working things for my good so much. But in the last few years especially I’ve sung this song several times back to God as a way to tell Him I would like to see it happening more…in this season, as I was set apart for my current church calling two months ago, I was told I would learn even more that this principle is true, and is and will be true for me, and I have been noticing that I notice it in my own life and others’ stories for two months, but I don’t know if I had ever remembered this song again in connection with it. And today I hit another incident, and before I even realized that this was one such story, I realized that I was singing this song and it was the Lord singing it back to me again, showing me how, specifically in this thing in my life I have been struggling with and still might for a while, He knows exactly what the song is, and He knew when I was singing it twenty years ago what use it would have in my life later, and all the time between then and now He’s been working things together for my good even when it looked like He was letting them or causing them to fall apart. Thank you for this song, it’s always been one of yours that I like best.
