Encircled in the arms of heaven's love With grateful heart I walk the path prepared for me The Savior is my light, my comfort and my guide And His word is a lamp unto my feet Yet all around me others wander lost Whom will He send to seek them as they stray? When mists of darkness rise to blind His children's eyes Who will show the way? Who will show the way? "A city on a hill cannot be hid Let your light so shine, " the Savior said Like Esther in her courage, like Joseph in his faith Like Ruth in her devotion, like David in his strength I will stand for truth and righteousness, reflecting heaven's light And my life will be like a beacon in the night For I will stand as a witness of Christ The Spirit whispers peace into my soul In every trial, in each uncertain hour. I know I can endure for as I kneel in prayer He enfolds me in the warmth of heaven's power Yet others weep for grief that knows no peace Where is their hope but in the Master's word? What comfort will He send to heal the hearts of men? Who will bear his love and light into the world? "A city on a hill cannot be hid Let your light so shine, " the Savior said Like Esther in her courage, like Joseph in his faith Like Ruth in her devotion, like David in his strength I will stand for truth and righteousness, reflecting heaven's light And my life will be like a beacon in the night For I will stand as a witness of Christ Like a candle in the darkness, like a fire upon the hearth Like the star that led to Bethlehem, like sunrise o'er the earth A city on a hill cannot be hid "Let your light so shine, " the Savior said Like Esther in her courage, like Joseph in his faith Like Ruth in her devotion, like David in his strength I will stand for truth and righteousness, reflecting heaven's light And my life will be like a beacon in the night For I will stand as a witness of Christ
we should'nt doubt why theres a word "Nephi", because its originally compose by a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints or known as mormons:-) Nephi is a prophet in the Book of Mormon.. and if im not mistaken .. Joseph in this song is actually The Prophet of Restoration Joseph Smith:-)

Before changing the name of Nephi, please study what Nephi did to establish the word of God. Joseph here referes to Joseph Smith the Prophet of restoration.
I love the song, but " nephi" I don't know who he is, for I don't find him in the bible. Maybe we can change in some biblical name which really in the bible as serve as example to us in faith.
Yes you're right! This is a mormon song and Nephi is only found in the book of Mormon. I'm not a mormon but I like the song 😁 so when we sing this song we replace it with a Biblical name 😉
For my mom I wont a mom to hug to love to read me a story a mom to last forever a mom to kiss me good nite.when you lose your mom the world stops .and you think why my mom.just knowing that she in heaven.she is with me forever in my heart
I'm not sure about that, since he was not mentioned in the Bible, only in the book of Mormons. In the Bible, it is John the Baptist who is the forerunner of Christ.
Yes He is! Nephi is one of the Prophets who testified of the divinity of the Savior, Jesus Christ. They're 600 years before the birth of Jesus Christ and are also descendants of Joseph who is the Son Jacob. His father, Lehi is also a prophet and was commanded by the Lord to preach repentance unto the people in Jerusalem but they would not listen.Because of the hardness of the hearts of the people, He was commanded by the Lord to take his family out of Jerusalem until they were lead by the Lord to cross the great waters unto the Promised Land in Americas.
i heard the one choir group used (King) David in his strength. for me as KJV reader, it is appropriate. Nonetheless, Ms. Sally DeFord's inspired music and compositions are well-loved by many different Christian church choirs and members. we are blessed.
often times these types of Christian songs are a lot more meaningful then "praise and worship music" nowadays ☺
Everytime i heard this song it got me teary
It is a beautiful song that tells the commitment and dedication to God. ☺ Blessings to you!
my heart was aching everytime i heard this song..

The Savior is my light, my comfort and my guide

The Spirit whispers peace into my soul
In every trial, in each uncertain hour.
I know I can endure for as I kneel in prayer
He enfolds me in the warmth of heaven's power
Yet others weep for grief that knows no peace
Where is their hope but in the Master's word?

Right, Joseph can be referred to both the one who sold into Egypt and the Prophet of Restoration. Nephi is a prophet in the Book of Mormon.
Our young women class sang this a month ago in church! :)
You just didn't know that this song is the same song the church choir sang!!!!!
Wow good for u

Who is sing this song, what a beautiful voice. and very expressive.
I can't remember the name of the singer. You can find the song and singer at Sally DeFord Music
I❤️❤️❤️
Hi!
I don't think you can find "Nephi" in the Bible. It's the first book in the Book or Mormons.
I'm glad you also like the song.:-)
1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Romans 1:16
we sang this at girls camp!
this was the most beautiful voice i have ever heard i think, i cant understand that it is mormonic?
i like this song....we can change the name Nephi to Samson?
Joy Ann Mansalapus maybe you change it but we must now who is nephi
Before changing the name of Nephi, please study what Nephi did to establish the word of God.
Joseph here referes to Joseph Smith the Prophet of restoration.
That is a good idea because there is no Nephi in the KJV Bible. This person is in the Book of Mormon. Lovely song up until that point.
@@portiacebrian8974 You might need a permission from the composer of the song to change it as she is referring to a Book of Mormon prophet.
@Captain: hehehe! yes only the appropriate ones...GBU!:-)
This makes me want to be mormon
Like it
I love the song, but " nephi" I don't know who he is, for I don't find him in the bible. Maybe we can change in some biblical name which really in the bible as serve as example to us in faith.
Yes you're right! This is a mormon song and Nephi is only found in the book of Mormon. I'm not a mormon but I like the song 😁 so when we sing this song we replace it with a Biblical name 😉
We actually replaced Nephi with David
The correct name is David "like David is his strength"
@@lcm-fmlifechangingmoment5494 in our church, we replaced nephi with samson
We did too! Because Samson is known for his physical strength.
For my mom I wont a mom to hug to love to read me a story a mom to last forever a mom to kiss me good nite.when you lose your mom the world stops .and you think why my mom.just knowing that she in heaven.she is with me forever in my heart
+Robin Rowan how old r u..??
Awwwww I feel bad for u :(
Robin Rowan
Nice song, meaningful,but if we sing this song in different churches,we can change the nephi and Joseph into biblical names,.
Yes, definitely! That's what we did
yes, from the baptist i heard David which i personally believe if fitting. i am a KJV reader.
If im not mistaken nephi is forewitness of Jesus
Zomenion GT he was a prophet mentioned in the Book of Mormon
I'm not sure about that, since he was not mentioned in the Bible, only in the book of Mormons. In the Bible, it is John the Baptist who is the forerunner of Christ.
Yes He is! Nephi is one of the Prophets who testified of the divinity of the Savior, Jesus Christ.

all her sheet music is free defrodmusic
thanks for posting. do u have the music only?
Tem traduzida para portugues??
I lovvvvve this song and it's totally Mormon just sayin' lol :)
please i would like the piano sheets, it would be so nice if you could help me with that..
The correct name is David "like David is his strength"
It can also be Samson.
Where can i get the piano sheet of this song?
At Sally deFord Music website
I think nephi should replace Samson
Maybe you mean the other way around? Samson should replace Nephi?
i heard the one choir group used (King) David in his strength. for me as KJV reader, it is appropriate. Nonetheless, Ms. Sally DeFord's inspired music and compositions are well-loved by many different Christian church choirs and members. we are blessed.
this was a beautiful song? but is it mormon?
Yes 👍
Piano chords please :(
Sorry I don't have thr music sheet. You can check it out at the website of Sally deFord
Who is Nephi mentioned in the song?
He's a prophet in the Mormon faith. He's not found in the Bible...only in the Book of Mormon.
Oh i see. Thanks
I'd rather say David
Yes, or Samson.
@mordecai002 COuld not agree more!
INSTEAD of nephi, it should be Levi!
Why change something that doesn't need changing 😅
😊 Well, Levi is not known for his strength...maybe Samson.
David
Maybe because not so many people know who Nephi is. 😊 He's not also mentioned in the Bible.
