What's Most Important

Yesterday we went to Sara Matson's baptism. I was again reminded of the sacredness of this saving ordinance. I had a song come to my mind and it hasn't left. I felt I should share it with all of you. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir does an amazing job singing this one.

We do what we do because we love our Savior Jesus Christ and want to be like him. Enjoy the song "This Is The Christ".



1. They heard His voice, a voice so mild.
It pierced them through and made their souls to quake.
They saw Him come, a man in white,
The Savior, who had suffered for their sake.
They felt the wounds in hands and side,
And each could testify:

Chorus:
This is the Christ.
This is the Christ, the holy Son of God,
Our Savior, Lord, Redeemer of mankind.
This is the Christ, the Healer of our souls,
Who ransomed us with love divine.

2. I read His words, the words He prayed
While bearing sorrow in Gethsemane.
I feel His love, the price He paid.
How many drops of blood were spilled for me?
With Saints of old in joyful cry
I too can testify:

Words: James E. Faust, b. 1920, and Jan Pinborough, b. 1954
Music: Michael Finlinson Moody, b. 1941
