SKU: A0.1287904

A wonderful, sacred choral arrangement for mixed choir. Music by Kevin G. Pace. Text by Kathryn W. Hales.

I often wonder if I’d been there
On the shores of Galilee,
Would I have stopped and listened to
A stranger I happened to see,

A man called Jesus, from Nazareth,
Whose words right from the start
Might come to my ears as something sweet’
Would I have had a believing heart?

Chorus:
A believing heart, a special gift
Of faith that I might see
Eternal truths from God above,
That I might say and do and be

A willing servant committed to
The Master’s work below;
A believing heart, a willing mind,
To Him I’d like to show.

I often wonder if I’d been there
In another time and place,
Would I have listened to Alma’s words:
Or with a multitude seen the face

And touched the feet of Jesus Christ,
Of His people been a part?
From pages of Book of Mormon
I learn of those with believing hearts.

I often wonder if I’d been there
In Ohio or Missouri,
Would I have listened to Joseph Smith,
Or a jeering scorner be

Because of tradition or fear of men,
Would I have quickly turned apart?
Or would I have stayed and heard his words?
Would I have had a believing heart?

And now I live in the latter days
God’s message I have always known
Throughout my days of mortal life,
Gospel truths from parents at home,

Or from missionaries bold and strong,
Yet I must still choose to testify.
