"The Family Is of God"
Words and music: Matthew Neeley
Words and music: Matthew Neeley
1. Our Father has a family. It's me! It's you, all others too: we are His children.
He sent each one of us to earth, through birth, to live and learn here in families.
2. A father's place is to preside, provide, to love and teach the gospel to his children.
A father leads in family prayer to share their love for Father in Heaven.
3. A mother's purpose is to care, prepare, to nurture and to strengthen all her children.
She teaches children to obey, to pray, to love and serve in the family.
4. I'll love and serve my family and be a good example to each family member.
And when I am a mom or dad, so glad, I'll help my family remember.
Chorus:
God gave us families to help us become what He wants us to be - This is how He shares His love, for the family is of God.

My kids are in love with that song too. I remember that Sarah had it playing on her blog. I'm glad that we have it on this year's Primary Song CD so we can listen to it lots. I just love the message, the tune, everything about it!
