“Family History—I Am Doing It,” Friend, June 2014, 19

I Can Play It!

Family History—I Am Doing It

(Simplified)

Words and music by Jeanne P. Lawler

Brightly 104–112

music, Family History—I Am Doing It

Fam’ly history—I am doing it,

My fam’ly history.

And the love I feel when I’m doing it

Is very sweet to me.

I learn stories of my progenitors;

I write their history.

I keep records of my loved ones

On my own fam’ly tree.

Fam’ly living now and the ones who’ve died

Can all be sealed to me,

And someday I’ll meet ev’ry one of them,

I’m sure as I can be.

Oh what joy we’ll have when they say to me,

“We’re all a family.

I am yours and you are mine now,

Through all eternity.”
