Be Thou An Example Lyrics

By Ruth Ann Flower

Be thou an example of the believers,

In word, in conversation,

In charity, and Spirit,

In faith, in purity.



Chorus

We are Thy youth in  the latter days,

Given the duty to serve,

Given the Priv'lege to obey;

There are hands to grasp,

Minds to encourage,

Hearts to inspire,

And souls to save.

This is our time;

Time to show who we are,

Time to become and example;

That's how that we come unto Christ.



We'll show our light and they will follow

Through prayer, through faith in the Lord,

Through service, through example,

We'll try to be like Jesus.



You have a heritage; honor it.

You will meet temptation; withstand it.

You know the gospel truth; live it.

You have testimony; share it.



This is our time;

Time to show who we are,

Time to become and example;

That's how that we come unto Christ.



That's how that we come unto Christ.
