“Families Can Be Together Forever,” Liahona, Apr. 2013, 65 Families Can Be Together Forever (Simplified) Words by Ruth Muir Gardner Music by Vanja Y. Watkins Brightly 80–96 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 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. Words and music © 1980 IRI. Arr. © 2012 IRI. All rights reserved.
