IN OUR LOVELY GARDEN STATE
Tune: In our Lovely Deseret (No. 307)
Words by Sister Barbara Workman
(Music by George F. Root)
Verse 1:
In this lovely garden state, we are missionaries great,
Sent to call the Father's lambs into his fold.
Here the harvest we will reap,
Sacred promises we'll keep
With a faith that's fearless, and a courage bold.
Chorus:
Missionaries of New Jersey,
Valiant servants of the Lord.
Heart and soul and mind we'll give,
So that precious souls might live.
Two by two we're marching forth to spread his word.
Verse 2:
En el compo que se ve, siendo fieles a la ley,
Con deseos de cumplir y bautizar.
Cada vez luchemos mas,
Que seamos eficaz,
Con la fe' que dura siempre sin cesar.
Chorus (Español):
Misioneros de New Jersey
Siervos dignos do Señor.
De Nosotros todo damos,
Para que todos vivamos,
Dos por dos mostramos el amor mayor.
Verse 3:
Elders, Sisters, Couples too, though the harvesters are few,
We're united, and we love the work we do.
Bold and fearless we will be,
And with the strength of God you'll see.
We're a mighty army with a message true.
Repeat Chorus
