I Love to See the Temple Lyrics

This song is published in the Children’s Songbook Page #95
You can find I Love to See the Temple sheet music here.

Verse 1:
I love to see the temple.
I’m going there someday
To feel the Holy Spirit,
To listen and to pray.
For t For the temple is a house of God,
A place of love and beauty.
I’ll prepare myself while I am young;
This is my sacred duty.

Verse 2:
I love to see the temple.
I’ll go inside someday.
I’ll cov’nant with my Father;
I’ll promise to obey.
For the temple is a holy place
Where we are sealed together.
As a child of God, I’ve learned this truth:
A fam’ly is forever.

Verse 3*:

I love to see the temple
Shine brightly through the night
A beacon to all people
Of purity and light
For the temple is a sacred place
Where worthy Saints assemble
To receive the holy ord’nances
Performed in God’s own temple.

(*Official 3rd verse written by Janice Kapp Perry for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir)
