I love the words to that song, especially when I think of President Hinckley, indeed we are thankful to have had him as a prophet
I couldn't have picked a better phrase to describe what a wonderful prophet President Hinckley was. I am so thankful to have lived in the time when he was prophet. He will truly be missed.
