Text:

When alone in the darkness,
The universe before our gaze,
And we ponder the meaning
Of this life, obscured in the haze,

When we look to the mountain top and see the temple like a beacon
Its light dispels all fear of darkness, revealing God's eternal plan.

CHORUS
For the temple stands strong and shining, like an old lighthouse upon the shore,
And the covenants we make with Father serve to steel resolve forevermore.
Let us look to the temple, its symbol e'er be our prod,
Where we hope the Lord may ever find us, for the temple is the House of God.

Though the serpent beguiles,
Temptations ever at the gate,
While the world and its pleasures
Seek to sway us from a nobler fate,

When we look to the mountain top and see the temple like a beacon,
Our will is strengthened in the promise of joy and glory for all time.

CHORUS

When a loved one is taken
And sadness fills the grieving soul,
Left behind, we may question
Whether God can ever make us whole.

When we look to the mountain top and see the temple like a beacon,
The promise of the resurrection lends courage to the broken heart.

CHORUS
