“Families Can Be Together Forever,” Tambuli, Mar. 1993, 8 Families Can Be Together Forever Words: Ruth Muir Gardner Music: Vanja Y. Watkins 1. I have a fam’ly here on earth. They are so good to me. I want to share my life with them through all eternity. 2. While I am in my early years, I’ll prepare most carefully, So I can marry in God’s temple for eternity. Chorus: Fam’lies can be together forever Through Heav’nly Father’s plan. I always want to be with my own family, And the Lord has shown me how I can. The Lord has shown me how I can.
