I see the
light of
the
temple at
night.

As it
shines
it
reminds
me

I must
prepare
if I hope
to go
there,

But I
need
someone
to guide
me.

Please
teach me
about the
temple.

Please
show me
how to
prepare.

Then
all of
my life
I will try

To be
worthy
to enter
there.

Please
teach me
about
the
Temple.

I want
to know
so that
someday
I may
go.

I see the
light of
the
temple at
night,

And its
glow
is a
symbol

Helping
me think
of the
safety
and
peace

That
come
from the
holy
temple.

Please
teach me
about the
temple.

Please
show me
how to
prepare.

Then
all of
my life
I will try

To be
worthy
to enter
there.

Please
teach me
about
the
Temple.

I want
to know
so that
someday
I may
go.
