The Truth Goes Forth Across the Earth
____________________________________________________________
As Saints in the latter-days we strive to follow Jesus Christ and obey the truths of His restored gospel. As we do so, we feel His love and desire all to receive it. As the world descends into greater darkness, with trials and great challenges, the Light of Christ shines ever brighter and provides the covenant path we may walk to receive of His love, peace, and hope. The Lord loves each of His children and is gathering all who would hear His voice and follow Him. In Jeremiah 23:3, the Lord promised, "I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them." We participate in the great work of gathering as we live and share the gospel with friends and family, serve as missionaries, and perform temple ordinances for the living and for those who have died. President Russel M. Nelson declared, "The Lord is hastening His work to gather Israel. That gathering is the most important thing taking place on earth today. Nothing else compares in magnitude, nothing else compares in importance, nothing compares in majesty."

Lyrics
Music and Text by Diane Sheldon Tuiofu
Verse One
The truth goes forth across the earth
In testimonies bright--
A beacon through the dark'ning hour
To guide us through the night.
From fervent tongue to humble heart,
The word of God will fly
On wings of courage from the Saints
Who boldly testify.
Verse Two
The truth goes forth across the earth
In temples standing strong
Against the storms of sin and strife,
A place where we belong.
God's temple covenants extend
Beyond this mortal sphere,
Redeeming worthy, waiting souls,
While angels witness near.
Verse Three
The truth goes forth across the earth
From Saints endowed with power
To gather scattered Israel
Until the final hour
When all the faithful rise in might,
Upheld by God's own hand,
Rejoicing with the angels as
The Savior comes again!
