Gordon B. Hinckley—Constant as the North Star


Gordon B. Hinckley—Constant as the North Star

Brightly

1. When President Hinckley was a boy,

he slept outside for fun.

He noticed all the stars would move,

except for one.

Be constant as the North Star that shines for you and me,

Anchored in the gospel with pure integrity,

Steadfast in your service to God and fellowman.

President Hinckley has shown us that we can.

2. Discouraged while in the mission field,

he read these words from home:

“Forget yourself and go to work.”

His heart was stirred to

Be constant as the North Star that shines for you and me,

Anchored in the gospel with pure integrity,

Steadfast in your service to God and fellowman.

President Hinckley has shown us that we can.

3. So if you’re discouraged or confused,

just think of that bright star.

Remember what our prophet said

And who you are.

Be constant as the North Star that shines for you and me,

Anchored in the gospel with pure integrity,

Steadfast in your service to God and fellowman.

President Hinckley has shown us that we can.
