Get started teaching this beautiful song with our My Own Sacred Grove flip chart! The kids will love connecting to Joseph Smith in a deeper way with this unique song about finding our own space to connect with the Lord.
This song isn’t in the Children’s Songbook, so you will have to get special permission from your Bishop and Primary President, but with how beautiful this song is it’s worth asking! My Own Sacred Grove was written by Angie Killian.
I highly recommend this song as part of your Doctrine & Covenants Primary Songs for the year. It’s perfectly themed to fit in with the Come Follow Me study of Joseph Smith and the early saints.
Along with My Own Sacred Grove, you can see all our Suggested Come Follow Me Songs by Year to help you plan out your song selections for the year! It’s an easy way to pick out song and avoid repeats so the kids get lots of exposure to all the great songs in the Children’s songbook.

My Own Sacred Grove Lyrics
This song was written by Angie Killian and will need to be approved to be taught in Primary. You can purchase the My Own Sacred Grove Sheet Music here.
Verse 1:
Joseph Smith went to a grove full of trees.
Seeking God’s wisdom, he fell to his knees.
As he pled with the heavens the sky filled with light,
And the Father appeared with His Son Jesus Christ
Standing above in the air, coming to answer his prayer.
Chorus:
I will find my own sacred grove away from all of the noise in the world.
I will turn to prayer, for I know He’s there.
I will find my own sacred grove.
Verse 2:
So many choices with so much at stake.
Life’s full of pathways, but which should I take?
If I lift up in prayer in the name of the Son,
Through the pow’r of the Holy Ghost answers will come.
Heavenly Father is there ready to answer my prayer.
Bridge:
Sometimes the answers take time,
So I’ll listen in heart and mind.
Revelation will come my way
As I wait patiently in faith.
