Are we reaching out in love?

A music video performance of 'Reaching Out' recorded during an international youth music festival held on July 29, 2020.
We can lift others like Christ lifts us.

This song talks about how Jesus Christ is always reaching out to us.

Are we reaching back to Him?

And—to add another layer of something to think about—are we following His example by reaching out to others?

So many people are aching for love and need physical help. We can represent Jesus Christ by showing them kindness and compassion.

By the way, this song is from the 2020 mutual theme album. Scroll down for lyrics!

You Are Loved

When have you felt the Savior’s love? If you don’t know if you’ve had an experience with His love before, ask a faithful parent or leader for their story.

“Reaching Out”

1. He is calling out your name
Through the dark, through the storm,
’Cause He knows where you belong.
He will help you find the way.
He’s the light in your heart
And He wants to bring you home.
So give your will to Him.
That’s when the miracles begin.

[Chorus]
When your hope is fading
And the stars refuse to shine,
Though you’re stumbling in the dark,
He knows right where you are.
When the waves are crashing
And your burdens drag you down,
He is waiting there for you,
And His hand is reaching out.

2. He will lift you to your feet.
He will stay by your side,
And He’ll warm you with His light.
So give your will to Him.
That’s when the miracles begin.

[Chorus]

3. But He won’t take your hand until you reach for it,
So reach for Him.

[Chorus]
