Relief Society (Tribute Song) Lyrics
von Alex Boye
This song is dedicated to all the pioneer women of the 21st century.
The stay at home moms, the working moms, step moms, adopted moms, foster moms, overworked moms, brand new moms and single moms.
We salute you.
We adore you.
We thank you.
And we see you.
We see you.
Well, it's true.
Even though we don't know what this world is coming to,
Let the sun still shine on everything you do, yeah.
You have always been by my side.
Nothing can stop you from reaching the top, nothing's gonna stop the Relief Society.
My sister, my sister, tell me what the trouble is.
The whole world's on your shoulders but it doesn't have to be like this.
In all reality it comes down to this...
WE COULD NEVER LAST A DAY WITHOUT YOU.
See, it's your spark of divine nature that makes you unique.
You're impossible to duplicate, with you men are complete.
This world lights up whenever you're around.
Like the Tabernacle Choir you're a heavenly sound.
You inspire true emotions by transforming our brothers, doing everything to lift the hearts and minds and souls of others.
You're all that we could wish for, second to none.
You're my aphrodite super woman rolled into one.
See, Jesus found confort when Mary showed up,
And the Garden of Eden was lifeless 'til Eve showed up.
And Joseph was only half a profet 'til Emma showed up,
And a house is not a home 'til the Relief shows up.
They say behind every man there's a relief society woman.
With grace and poise she's the best kind of human.
Success can't compensate for failure in the home,
And the best kind of teaching comes from you and God alone.
I know sometimes you wash your pillow with lonely tears ata night, but please hold on dear sister, the end is in sight.
One day all men will stand before the Father of Light and will be judged on if we treated our women and girls right.
So I'm calling all the wards, and branches and stakes in Zion.
Let's salute all the young ladies and help them to keep their eye on ... the prize.
If you really knew the power you had...
You'd eliminate wolrd hunger, cut the deficit in half.
You're my Esther, my Mary, my Hannah, my Ruth,
My princess of faith and my queen of truth.
You're gonna set this world on fire,
Working 25 hours a day but still you never tire.
If I saw heavenly angels they would let you through,
And if I sat in the Grand Council they would ask for you.
If we saw heavenly choirs they would sing to you,
And if I saw Heavenly Mother, she'd look just like you.
... Relief Society
...Society
...Relief Society
...Society
Yeah!
Charity never faileth, it's sweeping across the nations.
Doesn't even matter if your Russian of Haitian.
Like the wind, we might not see you but we know that you're there.
We love you, we need you, please know that we care.
Between striving for perfection, taking on 3 callings,
Sharing other burdens, still you feel like falling.
And what you contemplate is what you 'gon get.
And if you think God is done with you, you ain't seen nothin' yet.
Whoa.
I'm sure ir feels like your work is never done,
And the house is never clean,
And you're always on the run,
But please, always remember who's holding you up,
Only one footprint in the sand, 'cause He raises you up.
Put yor shoulder to the wheel,
Keep pushing on.
Do your duty with a heart,
With a heart full of song, yeah.
Sisters in Zion, it's you that we rely on,
We'd never last a day without you.
You're a heavenly angel, stronger than pearls,
Raisin' sons and daughters, who are changing the world, yeah.
Sisters in Zion, it's you that we rely on,
We'd never last a day without you...
The stay at home moms, the working moms, step moms, adopted moms, foster moms, overworked moms, brand new moms and single moms.
We salute you.
We adore you.
We thank you.
And we see you.
We see you.
