Elder Marshall Goodrich's "Tarheel" Mission: Elder Goodrich and Elder Clayton & Christmas Tree

Mission of Love

A servant of the Lord you chose to be

Clothed with priesthood power and glory.

Sent to teach his children the plan

Fulfilled by the Son of Man.

The light in your eyes will shine bright

For you are teaching truth and right.

Far from home you have gone

But never far from the Holy One.

Gospel truth will set them free

From earthly sorrow, you will see.

The lives you touch will honor you

Eternal blessings will accrue.

This time for you will be the best

For you have been truly blessed.

You were saved for these latter-days

To spread his word, and sing His praise.

Love the Lord and those you serve

With all your might, heart, soul and nerve.

The field is white and waits for you

To harvest souls both clean and true.

Return with honor is the cry

Look up to him, your head held high.

The Savior's love will inside you swell

For these two years have taught you well.
