President Hinckley was the prophet,
gave us B’s to do,
taught us to be kind in
everything we do.
He built many temples
all across the land,
Shook his cane in greetings,
taught things will turn out grand!

Idea by: Rescue Ward Primary in California

Gordon Bitner Hinckley is our prophet now,
He's building lots of temples, this has been his vow
He travels 'round the wor-ld Teaching what is right,
Helping boys and girls to follow in Christ's light.
 

Idea by: Lynette

Hinckley is a prophet, loved in every land.
The world now knows of Mormons because of this great man.
He brought us many Temples through work and dedication.
He gave us Gods words in the "Family Proclamation".
 

Idea: Taken from The Friend Magazine

Now there's Gordon B. Hinckley,
Champion of Truth
Loves primary children,
Cherishes the youth,
Travels many countries teaching Father's plan
Building many temples in so many lands.

Cori writes, "I have written a "Follow the Prophet" verse for Gordon B. Hinckley..."

President Hinckley was a prophet
In the latter days
He built many Temples
To follow the Lord's ways
When we keep our covenants
Lords people we will be
There will be great blessings
For you and for me

I am the Primary Chorister in Garden Cove Ward in West Jordan, Utah. After the death of President Hinckley I felt the sadness along with everyone else in our church. The day after his funeral our Primary had a little tribute for him. The primary president asked me to lead Follow the Prophet during her tribute. When asking she mentioned that it was too bad we don't have a verse about President Hinckley. It got me thinking. In the 30 minutes that it took her to present her sharing time I wrote a verse for President Hinckley. I had my Primary children sing that very day. I taught them these words with tears streaming down my face. I feel I was truly inspired. Here are the words:

President Hinckley was our Prophet
15th in our day
He built many temples
in these latter-days
Wrote a Proclamation
to the whole wide world
He was always busy
as he served the Lord.

Our Primary is planning on singing if for Primary Program.
