Verse 1

It is I who now am glad
you are so very happy.
As how important to recognize
this happiness in your life.

Verse 2

You have taught me that
I too can be happy
in life once again my friend;
by opening my heart.

Verse 3
********

To now share with others
all the great blessings
I've been so freely given
in the service to my friends.

Verse 4

It need not be even a friend
just someone who needs
an extra hand now
and maybe once again.

Verse 5

So though this lesson
come early in mortality
we sometimes forget
in life we have to reverse.

Verse 6

The commandment simply
states like "...little children
once again learn to be..."
and they teach us happiness.

Each and every day we see
they work so hard to try too please
and we like them should too
do the same on this part of the exam.
