I pull this song out a couple times of year around General Conference! It’s such a good one and the older Primary boys always LOVE this song! I think it’s finally one that’s more in range with their changing voices. 🙂
Our We Thank Thee O God for a Prophet flip charts below are available in three different formats to fit whatever style you like best from colorful to simple to even a slideshow option!
We Thank Thee O God for a Prophet is one of the songs I recommend teaching during the Old Testament Come Follow Me Primary year!
It’s only on the rotation list for the Old Testament and so even if you don’t plan to include it in your Primary Program, it will be a great one to sing a few times during the year to expose the kids to this great and powerful hymn!

We Thank Thee O God
for a Prophet Lyrics
This song is published in the LDS Hymn Book Page #19
You can find We Thank Thee O God for a Prophet sheet music here.
Verse 1:
We thank thee, O God, for a prophet
To guide us in these latter days.
We thank thee for sending the gospel
To lighten our minds with its rays.
We thank thee for every blessing
Bestowed by thy bounteous hand.
We feel it a pleasure to serve thee
And love to obey thy command.
Verse 2:
When dark clouds of trouble hang o’er us
And threaten our peace to destroy,
There is hope smiling brightly before us,
And we know that deliv’rance is nigh.
We doubt not the Lord nor his goodness.
We’ve proved him in days that are past.
The wicked who fight against Zion
Will surely be smitten at last.
Verse 3:
We’ll sing of his goodness and mercy.
We’ll praise him by day and by night,
Rejoice in his glorious gospel,
And bask in its life-giving light.
Thus on to eternal perfection
The honest and faithful will go,
While they who reject this glad message
Shall never such happiness know.
