“President Nelson taught ‘children can learn the
doctrine when they’re learning to sing just as much as they can learn the
doctrine in a class.’ Primary songs can provide a reservoir of faith-filled
sermons that point children to the Savior and help them develop devotion to His
gospel. The scriptures teach the songs of the righteous coming from the heart
are a delight to the Savior. I can only wonder at the delight the voices of the
Savior’s youngest disciples bring. I know their prayerful songs reach heaven as
expressions of faith to invite the Holy Spirit to confirm eternal truths and
softly and tenderly invite others to accept the call of our Savior to follow
Him and come home. As Elder Henry B. Eyring has reminded us, it is in those
moments of feeling the Spirit that we have evidence of the Savior’s Atonement
working in our lives.” – Tracy Y. Browning
